Srinagar, Sept 07: Urging the Centre to take "emergent" steps to address the Kashmir issue in view of the recent increase in violence in the state, Opposition National Conference has said Delhi and Srinagar should realise that the ground situation in Jammu and Kashmir was far from normal.
"The Central and the state governments must realise that the ground situation is far from normal. If the Centre does not take emergent steps to address the Kashmir issue, the situation is likely to worsen,” NC president Omar Abdullah said addressing a public rally at south Kashmir's Pulwama town yesterday.
Flaying Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed's healing touch policy, Abdullah said that it was a hollow slogan which had brought only misery and sufferings to the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
Apart from the increase in custodial killings and disappearances, PDP's much-hyped disbanding of the Special Operations Group (SOG) is also a blatant lie, he said.
The Mufti government and its law and order machinery is in total disarray and has lost control over the situation, he said adding that the Centre must immediately initiate a dialogue with all "shades of opinion" in Kashmir to resolve the issue.
People of the state were totally disappointed with the governance provided by the present government as all the developmental activities in the state have come to a standstill in the past 11 months, Abdullah said.
"The government is wasting more time playing in to the gallery and making tall promises than focussing on the welfare of the people of the state.”
