Srinagar Independent firebrand MLA and AIP supremo, Engineer Abdul Rasheed on Friday said that popular slain Hizb commander, Burhan Muzaffar Wani, was living in the hearts of people which was evident by the frustration of the current government.
Speaking during an ongoing special assembly session on Goods and Services Tax, which culminated today, he dared the sitting MLAs to raise their hands if Burhan was a terrorist.
World should know that even J&K Assembly doesnt treat Burhan as a terrorist, he said. He further appealed pro-resistance leaders not to downplay the GST issue by claiming that the ultimate goal is right to self-determination.
We have no reason to doubt sincerity of resistance leadership but they shouldnt downplay any such move that erodes the Autonomy and in the long run helps New Delhi in diluting the disputed nature of J&K. Nobody can pass the buck by calling very basic issues as non-issue, he said.
The firebrand MLA also lashed out at former Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah and Chief Minister, Mehbooba Mufti for not speaking even a word over the prestigious GST resolution in the Assembly.
Both Sheikh and Mufti dynasties are responsible for the majority of miseries which Kashmiris have been facing since 1947, he alleged on the floor of the House. Pointing toward Mehbooba Mufti, Rasheed said The only word you spoke during the three day discussion on GST was offering apology to Davinder Rana. Similarly Omer Abdullah turned to the house just for a day but didnt speak even a word as if he was a statue and preferred to shoot a tweet from some unknown destination to oppose GST. He needs to learn if New Delhi doesnt listen to UN resolutions and the huge sacrifices of Kashmiris, why should anybody give a damn to Omer Abdullahs tweets.
Rasheed added that the “terrible faces” of both Omer Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti stand unmasked and it is proven that they are Mir Jaffars and Mir Sadiqs of todays Kashmir. He reiterated that Burhan is living live in the hearts of people as is evident by every act of frustration being taken by the regime.
Later Rasheed staged walk out after pointing towards Mehbooba Mufti, saying that she was fulfilling the unfinished agenda of Sheikh dynasty with main objective to bury the sentiments, sacrifices, rights and aspirations of people of J&K.
