Soz cautions Mufti against forming government in J&K with BJP Srinagar,December 30: Prof. Saifuddin Soz, President J&K Pradesh Congress Committee today in a statement said,” I would only like to caution Mufti Mohd Syeed on the dangers of a miniscule minority here (in Kashmir) who suggest development plank for seeking special favour from the ruling class in Delhi, if PDP decides’ to forge an alliance with the BJP. Mufti Mohd. Sayeed should reject this short–sightedness and ask these elements to see the facts clearly and know for certain that India is a democracy and its Institutions have become strong over the decades. There is no largesse available to the Prime Minister of India to offer to those states only which are for the BJP dispensation. He said such elements in the system should also realise that India is a federation of states. How otherwise can the governments in West Bengal, Kerela, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Assam, Tripura ... Function?Soz asked. He said PDP as a party must also appreciate the fact that there is a vast secular space in Jammu and it happens to be a large asset and a unifying factor to the J&K state. The present situation has yielded a trump card in Sayeeds hand and I feel confident that he will use the opportunity very properly and advantageously, he said. The state Congress president said he was of the view that the atmosphere in the state is moving to Sayeeds favour and he would adopt a course which will hopefully be characterized as historic by way of the results on ground. A vast majority of right thinking people in the national capital now feel that the RSS, known very much for its ideology, has handed very difficult agenda to the present set-up of BJP, the implications of which they (the BJP top brass) have started to realise. While the RSS is giving a grudging consideration to the PDPs proposals, Mufti (Sayeed) Sahib is widely perceived to be a person who will not to go wrong on what suits best to the current political consensus that has evolved at a critical stage of his long political career”, he said.
