Why PM is silent on Malik’s revelations :JKPCC Chief

Panchayat Raj is biggest gift of Rajiv Gandhi :Vikar

JAMMU, April 24 :JKPCC Chief Mr. Vikar Rasool Wani has said that a fully empowered three tier Panchayat Raj system was the most revolutionary step of the Congress party under the leadership of Shri Rajiv Gandhi in  the history of the democracy of the country, thereby the power was transferred  to the people at the grass root level besides  ensuring the adequate representation of women,  SCs and STs.

Welcoming a prominent leader and founder member  of Azad led  DPAP, and  DDC Member from  Fristal,  Dist. Kulgam Shri  Anyatullah Rathar into the Congress party, JKPCC Chief  said that Mr. Rathar has chosen the occasion of Panchayat Raj Day, being himself associated with the Panchayat Raj system. His re-entry into the party will strengthen the congress in the region, since he was long associated with the party and was District President  also in the past.

Shri Vikar Rasool Wani said that the biggest gift to the people after attaining freedom, was the introduction of 73rd And 74th amendment of the constitution by Late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi which gave constitutional status to the Panchayats and Urban bodies besides ensuring 33% reservation  to the women and proportional representation  to the SCs and STs in the 3 Tiers Panchayat Raj System in the Country . He said that it was Narsimha Rao Govt. which carried forward the amendments and implemented on this day in  1993.

In Jammu and Kashmir the entire spirit of  73rd and 74th amendments  were  incorporated and implemented by the Congress party in coalition with PDP and NC , from time to time from 2002 onwards to March 2014, when  all remaining provisions were incorporated  through a legislative amendment during Congress NC Govt.

Shri Rahul Gandhi had himself come down to Jammu and  Srinagar and addressed Sarpanchs /Panchs Rallies to lend full support to the demands for the full implementation  of  73rd and 74th amendments in Jammu and Kashmir which was later done in March 2014.

JK PCC Chief questioned the mysterious  silence of the  Modi Government over the startling  revelations  of  the then Governor of Jammu and Kashmir and a close aide of  Prime Minister Modi, Shri Satya Pal Malik, over the Pulwama attack and the issues of corruptions, Mr. Vikar Rasool Wani said that the issues raised by him  can’t be brushed aside or put under the carpet as this is the question of National security besides putting the lives of 2500 jawans into risks out of which  40 Jawans were martyred. He was asked to keep quite over the issue of failure of the government to ensure their safety and the serious security lapses in protecting their convoy and unfortunately nobody answered the questions raised by Shri Malik. This is a very serious matter besides matter of huge corruption raised by him.

He also strongly condemned the attack on Army Vehicle in Mendhar area of Poonch Dist recently and expressed deep shock over the  loss of lives of the army jawans and showed grave concern over the attack despite high alert. He said that Congress is always on fore front to counter the threat of terrorism as congress party and Nehru Gandhi family has sacrificed the most in terrorism while criticizing a statement of BJP General Secretary Tarun Chug in this context.
