In parliament, Advani told me anything possible within constitution of India: Soz

Srinagar: “Senior BJP Ideologue Lal Krishna Advani had once told me in the Parliament that anything was possible within the ‘Four Corners of the Constitution of India’, Senior Congress leader Saifudin Soz said in a statement issued to KNS.

“Advani was so sure then that Kashmir was a problem and its final solution could be envisaged within the Constitution of India. Today, as I am told, a section of Kashmiris possibly think that the crisis could best be resolved within the Constitution of India. But, the Govt. of India doesn’t show any sign of settling the issue through ‘Discussion and Dialogue’. As critics of the Central Govt. have explained, the Govt. has found a comfortable tool of dealing with anybody in Kashmir by imposing the PSA (Public Safety Act),” he said in a statement.

“The latest victim of this infamous Act is Shah Faisal, who had barely started activities in his recently instituted party – J&K People’s Movement.It is so tragic that the entire ‘Mainstream Leadership’ is either in Jail or under House Arrest,” he said.

He added: “For the sake of future of India’s democracy, India’s opposition parties including INC should have taken notice of the current political scenario in Kashmir! Or else, is it a situation that the National Opposition Parties have also fallen to extremely bad times? By any standards, it is then a bad omen for the future of ‘Indian Democracy’!(KNS)
