Jammu, Mar 9: Jammu and Kashmir unit of Congress on Monday staged a protest outside its party headquarters here against the BJP-led central government, demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his \u201cabject surrender\u201d before the US.
\nThe protesters, led by Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Tariq Hameed Karra, also pushed for early restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir.Scores of Congress activists and leaders gathered outside the party headquarters at Shaheedi chowk along the Residency road but were not allowed to move forward by police which was deployed in strength to maintain law and order.
\nThe workers, including women, were carrying placards reading \u201cRestore Statehood\u201d and \u201cHamari Riyasat Hamara Haq\u201d and also raised slogans against the Modi government and the India-US trade deal.
\nLaunching a sharp attack on the Centre, Karra alleged that the prime minister had \u201cdestroyed India\u2019s global standing\u201d and weakened institutions that once defined the country\u2019s foreign policy.
\n\u201cIndia was a champion of the Non-Aligned Movement and regional cooperation platforms like SAARC, but today the country\u2019s image has been demeaned. The prime minister\u2019s conduct has brought down the honour and dignity of the office,\u201d he alleged.
\nHe alleged the government was compromising India\u2019s interests in its dealings with global powers.
\n\u201cThey are even dictating terms on whether India should buy oil from Russia. Such decisions about our trade and energy security cannot be dictated by other countries,\u201d he said.
\nThe Congress leader accused the prime minister of making an \u201cabject surrender\u201d in international dealings and reiterated the party\u2019s demand that Modi step down.
\n\u201cThe US and Israel have videos of Modi and are blackmailing him. He is compromised and must step down,\u201d Karra alleged.
\nDuring the protest, demonstrators also set ablaze flags of the United States and Israel as a mark of protest.
\nKarra said the party had planned protests across all 20 districts of Jammu and Kashmir coinciding with the ongoing Budget session of Parliament, but alleged that police did not allow peaceful demonstrations in certain districts of the Kashmir Valley even as protests were also being held simultaneously in Srinagar.
\nHe claimed that Congress workers in several districts of the valley were either detained or placed under house arrest, terming it a curtailment of democratic rights.
\n\u201cOur constitutional right to protest is not being allowed. This is not democracy but autocracy and replica of the Nazi era,\u201d he said.
\nKarra reiterated the party\u2019s demand for the restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir.
\n\u201cRestoration of statehood is our stated stand and we are reiterating it. We are not begging from anyone nor seeking any favour. Our constitutional guarantees must be restored to us,\u201d he said, asserting the party would continue its struggle until statehood is restored.
\nThe Congress leader also criticised the Centre over rising prices, including the hike in LPG, saying the increases would further burden crores of people and worsen the economic situation in the country. (Agencies)<\/p>\n
