J&K Government run by two governments, says Deputy CM

STC NEWS DESK
SRINAGAR, SEPTEMBER 23 (STC):
Jammu and Kashmir is effectively being run by two governments. One is elected by the people and another imposed on them.
This is the statement of Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Kumar Choudhary dished out by him today.
He criticised the opposition for what he described as selective attacks on the National Conference. Speaking to reporters, the Deputy Chief Minister accused the opposition leader of targeting the National Conference despite having held a ministerial post during the BJP-PDP alliance. “He was a minister during the BJP-PDP rule and did nothing for the people. Now he keeps blaming the National Conference. This is hypocrisy,” he said.
Choudhary emphasised that his party needed a free hand to govern and implement its promises to the people. He also expressed hope that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would honour commitments to restore full statehood to Jammu and Kashmir and provide a comprehensive financial package to address flood damages and recurring disruptions on the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway.
He further criticised the BJP and PDP, saying “BJP and PDP are like brothers. They fooled the people in the past, but now they cannot befool the public anymore. The people of Jammu and Kashmir have seen a decade of hardships and they know who is responsible.”
