SRINAGAR, July 11: Amid the rising political heat over the 1931 martyrs, a senior member of ruling National Conference today vowed that the holiday on July 13 will definitely return as soon as possible.
\nAfter the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019 J&K government headed by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha removed the \u2018Martyrs Day\u2019 from the official holiday calendar of the government. There has been a growing demand from the Kashmir based parties including ruling NC to reincorporate July 13 in the holiday calendar.
\nNC\u2019s chief spokesperson and MLA Tanvir Sadiq said the party has always paid tributes to July 13 \u201cmartyrs\u2019 and it will continue to do so.
\n\u201cAs far as we are concerned, we have made a promise. We will definitely bring the holiday of 13th of July and bring it as soon as possible,\u201d Sadiq told media on the sidelines of a party function.
\nSadiq linked the removal of the holiday to the broader \u201cerosion\u201d of Jammu and Kashmir\u2019s political identity.\u201cThis is why we keep saying that the return of statehood is crucial,\u201d he added. \u201cOnly then can we rectify what has been destroyed in Jammu and Kashmir.\u201d
\nSadiq said the party had already submitted a formal request to District Magistrate Srinagar, for paying tributes to July 13 martyrs at Naqshband Sahib in old Srinagar.
\n\u201cWe only want to offer tributes and Fatiha for the martyrs. I think there should be no obstacle,\u201d he said. He said that Raj Bhawan, which is responsible for the law and order, should not have any reason to disallow them from paying tribute to martyrs.
\n\u201cIf the ruling party is asking to go and pay homage to those martyrs who live in the hearts of Jammu and Kashmir\u2019s people, where is the law and order issue?\u201d he asked. \u201cIt is a pity that remembering our martyrs causes discomfort to Raj Bhawan and their politics.\u201d
\nSadiq launched a scathing attack on PDP president Mehbooba Mufti and the Apni Party headed by Altaf Bukhari, accusing them of hypocrisy over their recent remarks regarding the July 13 Martyrs\u2019 Day observance.
\nSadiq questioned the moral ground of both parties to speak on the issue, alleging that during their alliance with the BJP, they failed to honour the legacy of the 1931 martyrs.
\n\u201cWhen Mehbooba Mufti was the Chief Minister, not once did any of her cabinet ministers from BJP visited martyrs\u2019 graveyard to offer homage on July 13,\u201d Sadiq said.
\n\u201cThey didn\u2019t even put the Jammu and Kashmir state flag on their official vehicles.\u201d He accused the PDP and Apni Party of political opportunism, saying, \u201cToday they want to teach us about Martyrs\u2019 Day? It\u2019s deeply unfortunate. It was because of their mistakes that 2019 happened \u2026 This is nothing but politics and people have rejected them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
