NC anguished over deletion of Sheikh Abdullah’s birth anniversary from calendar, seeks review
By Daily Excelsior -29/12/2019
Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Dec 28: Expressing anguish over deletion of birth anniversary of Sheikh Mohammed Abdullah from the official Jammu and Kashmir Holiday Calendar 2020, National Conference today sought review in the decision, saying the contribution of Sher-e-Kashmir in democratic awakening of his people cannot be undermined, as it stands acclaimed nationally and internationally.
“Sheikh Abdullah was a visionary mass leader and statesman who rejected two-nation theory of Mohammed Ali Jinnah over secularism of the Father of Nation Mahatma Gandhi”, Provincial President Devender Singh Rana said while addressing a press conference at Sher-e-Kashmir Bhavan here this evening. He was flanked by senior party leaders including former ministers Ajay Kumar Sadhotra and Surjeet Singh Slathia besides Rattan Lal Gupta, Th Rachpal Singh, Babu Ram Pal and Trilochan Singh Wazir.
Rana said the towering personality of Sher-e-Kashmir cannot be confined in the myopic prism of regional politics, as he fought for democracy when the entire nation was struggling to break the shackles of British under Mahatma Gandhi. Being contemporary of Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru, Frontier Gandhi Khan Abdul Gaffar Khan, Maualana Abul Kalam Azad and many other national leaders, Sheikh Sahib fought for the marginalized people of Jammu and Kashmir, irrespective of region, religion, caste or creed. His exemplary role during the horrendous days of partition was acknowledged by the suffering masses of the entire sub-continent which got reflection in the sentiments of the Mahatma, who had observed ‘light of ray emanated from the soil of Kashmir’, he added.
Enumerating the observations of luminaries like former President Neelam Sanjiva Reddy about inspiring leadership of Sher-e-Kashmir, describing him as Sher-e-Bharat, the Provincial President said similar sentiments echoed again in the December 1990 Monograph of Lok Sabha Secretariat with eminent parliamentarians of the era sharing their sentiments about political philosophy of Sheikh Abdullah in voluminous compendium. He quoted Pt Jawaharlal Nehru saying, Sheikh Abdullah is Jammu and Kashmir and Jammu and Kashmir is Sheikh Abdullah. Similarly, Atal Behari Vajpayee described Sher-e-Kashmir as identity of J&K while L K Advani said, “For decades, Kashmir’s politics has come to be identified with the personality of the Sheikh”.

What a silly pretentious title. Sher-e-Kashmir. If these clowns so admire him, let them name their children after him. In fact they can all change their names to Mohammed Abdullah.

Devender Singh Rana is brother of Dr. Jitendra Singh (MoS in PMO) while rest of the luminaries are from Jammu (mostly Dogras), A region which Abdullah crushed with heavy hand and total religious discrimination.
Talk about Dhimmis and Chameleons.

2 Lakh arms licenses ? What were they doing ? Trying to create an Army ?
The number looks suspiciously high especially knowing how hard it is to get an Arms license anywhere in India.

56 police got hurt with bullet wounds in anti CAA riots in UP alone. Lot of illegal arms are already there. There is in fact big illegal arms industry in India also. The problem is only criminal and terrorist end up having weapons and not common people. The arms act only ensured common people are unarmed. That is all.

IIRC, in the late 90s, Village Defence Councils(?) were formed as the only hope of countering the nocturnal vijits of the L-e-T. I assume that this was the rationale, but of course what happened in reality is as usual open to question. There were a few incidents where terrorists were at least scared off - or probably decided to go murder somewhere else. Were they scared off - or bought off with weapons/ammo - one wonders, but maybe it DID serve some of the functions of a "local Army" as in the western movies.

Looks like everyone got licences including armed forces too (Do SF need gun licence for official duty ??).
Bit dated news but still gives good insight.

It was also alleged that the then public servants received illegal gratification in issuance of
licences to non-residents of Jammu and Kashmir in violation of rules, they said.
The case was handed over to the CBI on the basis of a recommendation from Rajasthan Director General of Police OP Galhotra as the anti-terror squad (ATS) had busted a racket related to the matter.
TThe Rajasthan ATS had estimated that around 4.29 lakh arms licences were issued in the last decade from various districts of militancy-hit Jammu and Kashmir.
The CBI is searching the premises of Mudgil, a 2007-batch IAS officer, the then DC Baramulla, Rajiv Ranjan, a 2010-batch IAS officer, then DC Kupwara, Itrat Hussain, the then DM Kupwara, Salim Mohammed, the then DM Kishtwar, Mohammed Junaid Khan, the then DM Kishtwar, FC Bhagat, the then DM Rajouri, Farooq Ahmed Khan, the then DM Doda and Jenhagir Ahmed Mir, the then DM Pulwama, the officials said.

things become clearer when you understand that many of these licenses are valid on an all India basis.

Ramana Ji, You are still keeping him in the cat family. He was Hyena-e-Kashmir. His family till now was collecting rent money from Delhi.
As much as I hate to admit this, Non-Muslims of J&K are full of Dhimmis still singing ayats in his honor including Dogra, Gujjar, KP and almost all the Sikhs.

This is a bad idea. There can be some reservation in UT govt jobs and restrictions in construction in ecologically sensitive areas. Rest should be similar to all other states e.g. restricting education to domiciles only is regressive.

The Centre is all set to provide protection to domiciles of Jammu and Kashmir in government jobs, educational institutions and land rights, a senior government official said on Friday.
The Centre is exploring the option of implementing the mandatory requirement of continuous stay in the region for a minimum of 15 years before applying for a job in government sector and admissions in schools and colleges in the Union Territory of J&K.
So they dont want others from Rest of India to come and settle ? Whats the point of removing Article 370 then if its not taken to its logical conclusion ?

This concern was also raised earlier by Shri Sushil Pandit that it is akin to taking 1 step forward and 2 back. These kinds of flip flops only raise morale of the moslems which will or can have repercussions else where as well.

^^ The Supreme Court verdict is just about asking GoI to "review" the restrictions in J&K in one week's time. GoI can do this "review" and still say after that they find merit to retain these restrictions. Supreme Court has NOT asked any order/circular to be withdrawn or anulled any laws/acts related to converting J&K from a state to UT. So by all practical means; Jammu and Kashmir state has become Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh Union Territories. Abdullahs, Muftis et. al will have to now seek alternate employement.

Human Rights appears to be a self serving term to be used. Since 1954 the disgraceful and mischevious intent of Art 35A and Art 370 did not constitute a violation of Human Rights of women, Gurkhas, displaced persons from Pakistan, Dalits brought from Punjab as Safai Karamcharis and various other sections of society. And this very court had been adjourning cases time and again on one pretext or the other when Art 370 or Art 35A was brought up. A division bench of the J&K high court took an inordinately long period to examine the rights of women before it issued a judgement.

While I am a huge supporter of the govt's initiative on article 370 (my posts would make that clear), I think the continued internet restrictions in
Kashmir are now becoming counter-productive and give a convenient issue for critics to beat us with. Development has to be pursued on a war footing. I have visited the valley last Feb and more recently in Oct and the general impression is that governance under Governor's rule has been no different from earlier. Relatively simple things like not enough vehicles to clear snow on roads, power outages due to a crumbling distribution system etc.

If mobile services & the internet become fundamental human rights, then you can't deny them to prisoners.
You can't deny them to terrorists rotting in jails.
You can't put any limitations in schools & colleges on mobile phones.
You can't put any limitations on mobile phones in the workplace.
Many examples will come where this statement of "basic human right" will not be applicable.

Post Aug 19, would have been a good opportunity to replace the governor with say Lt Gen Hasanin, or the former northern army commander Lt Gen Anbu, instead of the current incumbent, who has had no experience outside of Gujarat. Similarly, get IAS officers of proven ability to replace some of the the current state service guys. My article in Swarajya touches on some of these points.

Violence and deaths are down in Kashmir. the problem is one cannot quantify if it was due to the internet restrictions. Reduced violence builds the case that if situation is returning to normal, why have internet restrictions.
