Dark era of sponsored politics in J

Bandipora, May 14 (UNI) Senior Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader Muzaffar Hussain Baig today said his party has completely transformed Jammu and Kashmir's political scenario,'' uprooting the manipulative and sponsored politics.'' Addressing a public meeting here, he said the state's political scenario has undergone phenomenal transformation after the 2002 assembly elections.

This transition would culminate with the complete sway of the genuine political voices in the state, Mr Baig added.

The former Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister said this political cleansing process must start from Bandipora that suffered the most at the hands of the rogue elements suppressing its rich intellectual voices all these years.

''But this reign of oppression is going to die its own death and Bandipora would soon regain its glory on political and intellectual scene of the State,'' he added.

In the emerging scenario, Mr Baig said politicians with huge public support would only survive.

He said Bandipora was the most deserving area for district status given its geographical and geopolitical importance. By granting district status to Bandipora, the coalition government has not only fulfilled the long-pending demand of the people, but also provided the town an opportunity to regain its pristine glory, HE added.

He said by fulfilling this demand, the state government has empowered the people who had remained neglected all these years.
