Salman Nizami Says NC Betrayed J&K People on Article 370 Promise
Chief Spokesperson DPAP Salman Nizami, today accused the ruling party (NC) of betraying the people of J&K after securing a massive mandate on the promise of restoring Article 370.
He said that the recent turmoil in the J&K Assembly over Article 370 proves former Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad’s warnings during the elections, where he had honestly stated that those making grand promises would ultimately betray the trust of the public once in power. Nizami underscored that the return of Article 370 can only be achieved through parliamentary procedures, a move that appears highly improbable under the current central government.
He added that relying on Congress for the restoration is futile, as their position is already well-known. Furthermore, he pointed out that several opposition leaders including Arvind Kejriwal had previously supported the BJP government’s decision to revoke Article 370, which raises doubts about their commitment to reversing it. According to Nizami, Azad stands apart as an honest leader who never misleads the public.
He stated that the National Conference (NC) government lacks a consistent stance on the promises made to the people, choosing instead to play on emotions to consolidate power.Nizami added that while Azad has consistently worked towards the genuine development of J&K, he was maligned by these parties. However, he believes that the people are now recognising their mistake and seeing through the true motives of these political parties.
He further said, ‘We were accused of being the B team, but Ghulam Nabi Azad was the only leader who courageously fought against the revocation of Article 370 in Parliament, while all the MPs of the National Conference remained silent. Even after the recent Lok Sabha elections, both NC MPs continued to be mute in Parliament. One MP even deceived the public, claiming that if he introduced a resolution in Parliament, it would be rejected. Yet, he lacked the courage to stand up and speak out against the BJP government. Instead, they seem intent on appeasing them, as evidenced by their opposition to the resolution by a MLA in the J&K Assembly today. This only exposes their true intentions.
