After abrogation of Article 370, BJP government has nothing to show except white lies: alleges Tarigami

After abrogation of Article 370, BJP government has nothing to show except white lies: alleges Tarigami

Srinagar, Aug 4 (UNI) Questioning the central government’s claim that Article 370 was scrapped as it would end militancy, separatism and corruption in the region, the Communist Party of India (M) on Tuesday said even after one year when the special status of the state was withdrawn, BJP government has nothing to show except white lies.
“It has been a year since BJP Government scrapped J&K’s special status under Article 370, 35A demoted the erstwhile state into two Union Territories. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah justified and defended the decision on the floor of the house, that it would end decades-long militancy, separatism and corruption in the region and bring development, jobs and prosperity to the region”, a statement issued here this afternoon said.
However, one year down the line, promises proved to be a mirage and the claims a hoax. None of the aforementioned claims pass the test of reality. If violence has really come down and the security scenario has improved, then why does the administration resort to a muscular approach of silencing the voices of the population by arbitrarily booking its people and detaining youth under draconian laws like UAPA, Public Safety Act, CPI(M) senior leader Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami said.
