Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has reacted to the series of tweets of former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba wherein she alleged that Waheed Parra is being persecuted and tortured.
In a statement to KNT, police stated that: “Recent comments about CID investigations in the public domain through social media are unfortunate for two reasons: for being factually incorrect and making CID officers vulnerable to increased threats and enhanced risks. It is also fraught with the risks of adversely influencing the witnesses and the course of investigation. It is factually incorrect that an under investigation person was tortured. CID investigations are done professionally and as per law.”
“ Each and every arrested person is presented before competent court periodically as per law. Every arrested suspect has access to health care and doctors. It is neither proper nor lawful to discuss and pass verdict like remarks in the public domain about ongoing complex investigations.”
“ CID is answerable to the courts on all aspects including whether amenities and rights available to a person under custodial investigation and his legal obligations to cooperate in the investigation are being complied.”(KNT)
Raising concerns over the prevailing situation in Jammu and Kashmir following the abrogation of special provisions under Article 370 and Article 35A, Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad on Wednesday said local people across the three regions are not happy with bifurcation and demanded that statehood to J&K should be restored and assembly elections held at the earliest.
He asked the government to bring a bill to restore the statehood of Jammu and Kashmir and hold elections in the UT, he said this while addressing the house, “I have heard thousands of times Atal Bihari Vajpayee addressing the lower and upper house as, MP, Minister, and Prime minister but never heard him or any BJP leader including then Home and Defence minister mentioning in their manifesto about splitting a big state into two Union Territories till August 5, 2019.There was a demand for UT in only one district of Ladakh (Leh), not Kargil,” Azad said, adding: “Even though I would have been happy if Ladakh would have been made a UT and J&K would have left as it was”.
Leh could have been upgraded as UT but this is out of mind to understand that one of the biggest states in India since Akbar’s rule has been bifurcated, he said.
“Apart from Delhi if the world knows any state of India it’s Kashmir only for the historical background and beauty it has. Any foreign minister or the head of the state visiting India knows Kashmir and there won’t be any who don’t but the full-fledged state has been bifurcated into a Union Territory”, he said.”I still fail to understand why the J&K state was bifurcated into two union territories even now there is no improvement in law and order as it used to be during the elected government including the militancy that was very lowest but the same stands heights now.”, the leader of opposition said in his address.
“Developmental works were best during the elected local government while there is no developmental work at all and the parameters of health, education, and others is worse”, he said. “Post bifurcation the Educational institutions were shut and then came the pandemic but when the government started online classes there was no high-speed mobile internet available,” he said in his speech.
Congress leader questioned how is it possible for a state to develop when the educational institutions remain shut for 2 years.
“30 to 40 parameters were better than the national average what else was required since there was no rift or communal fight between Kashmir and Jammu divisions,” he said.
The senior Congress leader said that the tourism industry has come to an end in Kashmir valley.
“Some of the tourists who visited Gulmarg drive directly from the Airport to a five-star hotel there but that doesn’t benefit the local business of the valley including the taxi driver, horse cart runners, shopkeepers, and handicrafts. Thousands of hotels employee thousands of people but the staff is at home since there is no work as the tourist haven’t visited them for past two years now”, he said
He also said the condition of roads is worse and a stretch on the national highway from Batote to Banihal is waiting for completion for the last 6 years now that has led to huge losses. “Fruit business suffered a huge loss last year after the fruit-laden trucks remained stranded for almost a month given the closure of national highway”, he said. He however praised the PM Modi led central government for conducting successful maiden DDC elections in J&K.
” I congratulated them for conducting this as it was an old demand to empower the Panchayat Raj system initially the process was started by congress itself. DDC is a good step. We prise Central government for maiden elections”, he said.
Azad said that Northeast and Jammu and Kashmir including Ladakh and Punjab are important for India and there must be no step that evokes public resentment since all are border states.
“The people of Ladakh are not happy with the UT status. With the abrogation of Article 370 and 35A, anyone can buy their land. Job opportunities were earlier exclusively available for J&K residents. Jammu people aren’t even happy as the maximum land will be borrowed there alone with Punjab near it”, he said.
“Earlier some advertised posts were repealed immediately after resentment in Jammu as it invited applications Pan-India. Some national-level interviewers published were also withdrawn”, he said. “Transporters, Shopkeepers, and Unemployed in Jammu are unhappy. No one in Ladakh, Kashmir, and Jammu are happy with the abrogation of Article 370 and 35A.”
Jammu and Kashmir was not the only place across India enjoying special provisions, he said adding that no one can buy land in Himachal, Uttarakhand, Northeast, and the land of SC and ST was protected and it wasn’t in J&K alone rather across India.
If Jammu and Kashmir have to progress and if the borders have to be protected fighting the enemies government needs to win the confidence of people and tackle them with love and care, he said during the address.
“I end my speech asking the prime minister, to restore the statehood of Jammu and Kashmir and elections be conducted early”, he added (KNS)
