Srinagar, May 12 (Reporter) National Conference Vice President and party candidate for Baramulla Constituency Omar Abdullah on Sunday alleged that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has pushed Jammu and Kashmir into a political and economic crisis. “After August 5, 2019 people here got nothing but hardship, trouble, and difficulties”, Omar said while addressing a public gathering in Baramulla district on Sunday. Omar said, "Elections keep coming, this is not the first parliamentary election and it will not be the last, elections were held 5 years ago and there will be elections after 5 years, but the importance of the current election has increased because it is the first major election after August 5, 2019”. He said the way our state was disrupted on that day, our identity and our existence were destroyed, in the current election, the people here have been given an opportunity to send a message through their votes that we do not accept these decisions. Till a month and a half ago, I had no intention of contesting the election here, but when the BJP's A, B, and C teams started interfering and playing games, the party decided to field me from here, he said. “We are again passing through the period from which we were rescued by Sher-e-Kashmir, Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah. He established democracy here by freeing us from political slavery, established constitutional and democratic institutions so that the common people could be heard, and freed the people here from economic slavery by giving ownership rights to the lands with the power of Article 370. But today we are being pushed in that direction again," he said. "No effort is being spared to destroy democracy”, the former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister alleged and said, “Delhi is again working to take our lands under some pretext to push us towards the same economic slavery”. He said the People are being evicted from the land through road, rail, factories, and other pretexts, and bulldozers are being run even where those who got land under the Roshni Act. “All this became possible because, after the 2014 elections, the PDP and the People's Conference supported the BJP, while at that time we announced our unconditional support to the PDP but these people rejected our unconditional offer", he added...////...
