Holding the BJP-PDP coalition responsible for the chaotic state of affairs in the state, Panthers Party chairman Harsh Dev Singh today said the “unethical and unholy alliance” between the two diametrically opposed political parties for the sake of power, has spelled doom, death and destruction in the state.

Describing the existing scenario in the state as catastrophic fallout of the alliance, Harsh Dev Singh said the people across the state were paying the price for the opportunist coalition of proclaimed opponents. He was addressing public meetings in Marta and Kaghote villages of the Ramnagar constituency.

Expressing concern over the present mess in the state, he deplored the chaotic conditions that had engulfed all three regions of the state. He lamented that while Kashmir witnessed the worst-ever phase of arson, violence and infiltration during the BJP-PDP rule, Jammu’s borders suffered unprecedented disturbances and agony with the Ladakh region facing the heat of Sino-India face-off.

He said not only were the International Border and the Line of Control on fire but tension had severely escalated on the Line of Actual Control also with China adopting a highly aggressive and offensive posturing thus threatening peace and security all across the state.

He said while the border residents faced the nightmarish experiences of their lifetimes, the ministers were indulging in photo-ops and media statements without taking any action to provide the much-needed succour and solace to the victims of the Pakistani shelling.

He said some of the BJP leaders were even trying to stoke war frenzy by their war-mongering, oblivious of the agony and pain of the border inhabitants. He lambasted the BJP for disregarding its promises of providing five-marla plots in safer zones to border dwellers besides construction of shelters and bunkers. Had the saffron flavoured state government acted on time, the loss of precious lives of so many civilians could have been averted, he added.
