He cautioned that any tinkering with the Article would be disastrous and asked BJP RSS to stop damaging the Special Status, the fire of which is going to engulf the entire state, he warned.
He told the gathering that it was evident to people from the day one that the coalition is full of contradictions, lacks any policy, besides having no roadmap to deal with the problems arising from time to time, but despite that both are in coalition opposing each other on certain sensitive issues responsible for the present prevailing situation in the State, Mir said.
He described the ruling dispensation as two sides of the river, but at the sometime both (PDP BJP) are in coalition to enjoy power only by not caring about the wellbeing of the people & development of the State, which has come to standstill in every respect, he said.
