The silence of PDP President Mehbooba Mufti over the pull out by BJP is highly objectionable as the BJP’s National General Secretary Ram Madhav has level seriously allegations of misconduct against Mehbooba in particular and her party’s ministerial colleagues in general. As the pullout has been announced only after the continuing insistence of Mehbooba Mufti over the extension in suspension of operations against the militants in Kashmir after the holy month of Ramadhan even naives understand that Home Minister Rajnath Singh without bothering to take on board Mehbooba Mufti as Chief Minister of the state announced the resumption of operations against the militants in Kashmir valley. Keeping in view the fact that Jammu & Kashmir Police is part of the operations against the militants in the state the Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh should have taken the views of Mehbooba Mufti as Chief Minister of the state before announcing the resumption of the operations against the militants to at least show respect to the institutional arrangement put in place for counter militancy operations in the state.
Better for PDP President Mehbooba Mufti to break her silence over the pull out by PDP and come clean on the allegations leveled against her party by the BJP National General Secretary Ram Madhav as otherwise her secret pact with BJP top brass already understood by people in Kashmir would take her away from the people in valley to a point of no return.
Mehbooba Mufti not reacting to the allegations of Ram Madhav and BJP State Secretary (Organisation ) Ashok Koul refusing to make any contemptuous remark against Mehbooba Mufti or any other PDP leader lends credence to the allegations of the National Conference Vice President and former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah who has said that PDP and BJP have parted ways under a secret pact and keeping assembly in suspended animation is sufficient enough to show a secret pact between the two parties. Secret understanding to play yet another dirty political trick for furthering their electoral prospects in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections to unlikely to prove handy for PDP in Kashmir and BJP in Jammu as contradictions of words and deeds have already exposed the hidden agenda of PDP and BJP for 2019 Lok Sabha elections. The pull out by BJP and resumption of operations against the militants in Jammu & Kashmir can’t change the political perceptions about a broader agreement between the two parties on counter militancy operations in Jammu & Kashmir. Pull out by BJP won’t make Mehooba a martyr in Kashmir and resumption of operations against the militants in Kashmir can’t change the perception of the people in rest of India about Modi government’s failures in restoration of peace and order in Jammu & Kashmir state. Better for PDP President Mehbooba Mufti to break her silence over the pull out by PDP and come clean on the allegations leveled against her party by the BJP National General Secretary Ram Madhav as otherwise her secret pact with BJP top brass already understood by people in Kashmir would take her away from the people in valley to a point of no return.
