::.. Modi’s speech was full of political gimmickry: Tarigami | Vajpayee’s cliché has no takers in Kashmir ..:: Srinagar, Dec 8: Terming Narendra Modi’s speech in Sher-e-Kashmir Stadium as a statement loaded with electoral gimmick, CPI (M) State Secretary Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami on Monday said that the Prime Minister’s speech had nothing substantial to offer for the people of Jammu and Kashmir. In a statement issued here, Tarigami said that in recent past, it was in Mr Modi’s government that the talks with Pakistan were stalled without any rhyme or reason. “Jammu and Kashmir was hit due to devastating floods affected millions of homes and ravaging the whole infrastructure, but Modi government didn’t bother to declare it as a national disaster. Is this how Mr Modi wants to side with the thick and thin of Kashmiri people?” Tarigami asked. The CPI (M) leader said Mr Modi’s has tried to use the enormous problems faced by the flood victims of Kashmir to the maximum political advantage of his own party. “Instead of taking any substantial steps his government has utterly failed to deliver to assuage the issues of flood hot families including their rehabilitation.” The CPI (M) leader observed that Mr Modi has in vain tried to cash on Atal Behari Vajpayee’s myth of “Insaneyat Ka Diara” which has unfortunately no takers in Kashmir. “Let me inform Mr Modi that it has no currency now in Kashmir even during the ongoing election season. It was during Mr Vajpayee’s time that the Autonomy resolution was out rightly rejected without even being deliberated by his government. So it has now been proved that the cliché used by former prime minister is not only vague but an inane generalization,” Tarigami remarked, and added that Mr Modi’s speech is full of political gimmicks and the same would not work in Kashmir. The CPI (M) leader appealed the people to defeat the designs of the divisive forces who are bent upon harming the cultural identity and the pluralistic ethos of Jammu and Kashmir.
