The BJP has announced it will address the
concerns of the Jammu and Kashmir people
through ‘insaniyat’ (humane approach). The
statement comes close of the heels of praise
from unlikely quarters — the Hurriyat (M) and the
People's Democratic Party (PDP) — for the BJP-
led NDA's attempts to address concerns of
Kashmiris.
Riding high on the acknowledgement of the
NDA's attempts to resolve the Kashmir problem,
senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley on Monday said,
“During the past few days, I have read
statements of various political groups in the
Kashmir valley suggesting that the NDA
government in the past was more honest in
addressing the issues of Jammu and Kashmir
than the UPA government. Most of these groups
are ideologically opposed to the BJP. Why then
should they be more optimistic about the BJP’s
sincerity on the issues of Jammu and Kashmir?”
The BJP leader said Jammu and Kashmir has
been integral to BJP’s ideology and the party
believes there can be no territorial compromise.
“On the external dimensions of the issue, the BJP
will never allow India’s territory to be bargained
or compromised. On the internal dimensions, our
approach will be guided by Atal Behari
Vajpayee’s pronouncement that all issues will be
resolved within the dimension of ‘insaniyat’ , he
said.
Mr. Jaitley said he is equally convinced of the
need to address the “sense of discrimination”
among the people of Jammu, Leh and Ladakh.
“Within the valley, our approach has to be guided
by twin considerations of no concession to the
separatists and the sense of concern and
compassion of the average Kashmiri. Their
quality of life has to be improved and the areas
where they feel harassed will have to be
addressed. In a fight against separatism, the
people of Kashmir valley should be our important
allies. Issues of their alienation will have to be
addressed without compromising on the basic
tenets of our ideology,” he said.
Recently, Mirwaiz Farooq had surprised many in
political circles by announcing that the BJP-led
NDA took some bold steps for the resolution of
the Kashmir problem as compared to the
Congress-led UPA. The PDP too has spoken
favourably about the BJP’s prime ministerial
nominee, Narendra Modi.
