Jammu, Jun 20: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday criticised PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti and People\u2019s Conference leader Sajjad Lone for not raising the issue of reservation in recruitment when they had the opportunity.While speaking to reporters on the Cabinet Sub-Committee on reservations in recruitment, Abdullah said, \u201cWhen Mehbooba Mufti needed votes, she strictly banned her party members from even talking about reservation\u2026 When contesting elections from Anantnag and needing votes from Rajouri and Poonch, why did she not talk about reservation then?\u2026 Sajjad Lone was close to the government for five years when all this was happening. We were evicted from our government houses, and our security was reduced, while he was sitting in a government house. Why did he not talk about the reservation then?\u201d
\nHe added that his government had submitted the reservation report within six months, and this was the first time such progress had been made. \u201cIf I had to waste time, I would have given six more months to the Sub-Committee. What would they have done then? Did they have any way to force me to complete this report in 6 months?\u2026 The Cabinet has accepted the Sub-Committee\u2019s report and sent it to the law department for their comments\u2026\u201d Abdullah told reporters.
\nAbdullah also strongly opposed giving Punjab water access through Jammu and Kashmir.On the 113 km-long canal proposed for redirecting surplus water from three western rivers of the Indus system in Jammu and Kashmir to Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan, Abdullah said, \u201cI will never permit this. Let us use our water for ourselves first\u2026 There is a drought-like situation in Jammu. Why should I send water to Punjab? Punjab already had water under the Indus Water Treaty. Did they give us water when we needed it?\u2026\u201d.
\nWhen asked whether the National Conference would move the Supreme Court for the restoration of statehood, Abdullah responded, \u201cStatehood, we are waiting for PM Modi\u2019s promise in statehood.\u201d
\nWhile commenting on the rising tensions between Iran and Israel, Abdullah questioned Israel\u2019s actions and expressed concern for the safety of stranded Indian students. \u201cWhat has Iran done that Israel has targeted it? It was said a few months back that Iran does not have any nuclear programme, so why is it now being targeted? Our students are also stranded there, 400 have been taken to safe places, 1600 is the total number of stranded from J&K,\u201d Abdullah informed.Responding to a query about Congress MP Shashi Tharoor\u2019s remark that he had a difference of opinion with his party\u2019s leadership, Omar Abdullah said, \u201cIt\u2019s Congress\u2019s internal matter.\u201d
\nJammu and Kashmir Chief Minister also inaugurated a new Rabitta office in Jammu, aimed at strengthening public outreach and grievance redressal. According to Abdullah, the move followed the successful functioning of the party\u2019s Kashmir Rabitta office.
\n\u201cWe have opened the Rabitta office in Jammu as our Kashmir Rabitta office is doing very well. So we decided to open this office in Jammu also. Officers will be here. Online and offline, people can give their representation. We will try to get the work done in less time,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
