New Delhi, Dec 12: When asked about the Supreme Court's decision to revoke Article 370, National Conference leader and former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir Farooq Abdullah declared that the region should "go to hell." "Let Kashmir and Jammu go to hell.People were betrayed by them. It is their goal to win people over. If you did such things to drive people away, how would you win that? Abdullah stated during a Tuesday interview with reporters.Former chief minister and stalwart of the National Congress, Farooq Abdullah, came out in support of Jawahar Lal Nehru on Tuesday, arguing that the former was in the US when the special provision was brought about. The BJP had accused the country's first prime minister of being responsible for decades of violence and instability in Jammu and Kashmir as well as the special constitutional privileges granted to the former state under Article 370.The former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir asserted that Syama Prasad Mukherjee, the founder of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the then-Union Home Minister, were involved in the process of granting special constitutional privileges to the former state. “I don’t know why they (BJP) have so much venom against (Pandit Jawaharlal) Nehru. It is not Nehru's fault that J-K is granted special status under Article 370. Pandit Nehru was in America and Sardar Patel was present in Parliament when this article (370) was brought up. Syama Prasad Mukherjee was also present at the cabinet meeting regarding the imposition of the special constitutional provision. The decision was made at this meeting, according to the NC mainstay. According to Abdullah, there is hope that the Supreme Court will order the Centre to hold early elections in Jammu and Kashmir. In a historic decision on Monday, the top court upheld Jammu and Kashmir's removal of Article 370 and gave the Centre until September of the following year to reinstate statehood and conduct elections in the region. "We want elections in Kashmir to happen right now, but the Supreme Court gave them until September. He asked, "Where's the justice?" Earlier, Jawaharlal Nehru, the former prime minister, was singled out by Union Home Minister Amit Shah and held accountable for Pakistan's unlawful occupation of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). During a debate on the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill, 2023 and the Jammu and Kashmir Reservation (Amendment) Bill, 2023, Shah was speaking in the Rajya Sabha. Additionally, Shah stated in the Lok Sabha last week that Kashmir suffered for many years as a result of Nehru's two major errors. [caption…
New Delhi, Dec 12: According to Fitch Ratings, which released its report on Tuesday, there is a chance that policy continuity will be preserved in India since the current government is "most likely" to hold onto power during the April–May general elections. Nonetheless, it stated that the magnitude of the majority in the upcoming Indian Parliament might affect how far-reaching the administration's reform programme is. "Fitch said in a statement that it is most likely that the current administrations in India (BBB-/stable) and Bangladesh (BB-/negative) will hold onto power during their general elections in April–May and January, respectively, indicating the possibility of significant policy continuity."The BJP government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, first took office in 2014 and retook the majority in the general elections of 2019. The general elections for 2024 are scheduled for April or May, and Fitch predicts that the Modi administration will win three terms in office. Nearly half of the Asian region's rated portfolio, according to the global rating agency, will see presidential or legislative elections in 2024. According to Fitch, the primary focus of the elections among its rated Asian sovereigns scheduled for 2024 will be continuity.However, considering the possible geopolitical ramifications, there is a greater likelihood that the results of elections will affect credit profiles in Taiwan, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka—all of which rely on the successful implementation of IMF programmes and official support.
