People’s Democratic Party (PDP) leader and Jammu and Kashmir MLA Waheed Para has accused the government led by Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah of showing no interest in resolving the reservation issue. Para says that the current reservation policy has now become a matter of survival, which is directly affecting the future of the young generation.

Question on the intention of the solution
He further said, “Unfortunately, throughout this period, the government has shown no intention of resolving this issue, which has further increased the tension and uncertainty among our youth.”
Para’s comments come at a time when general category students are planning to resume their peaceful protest against the delay in rationalizing the quota policy.
Committee formed, but report not released
Para reminded that Chief Minister Omar Abdullah had constituted a committee on this issue and it has been a year since, but till now its report has not been made public. He says that this protest reminds the government of its responsibility to act with transparency and change the existing reservation policy.
Waheed Para said, “At least the reservation report should be made public.” He also said that there is no justification for not making public the report of the Cabinet sub-committee constituted by the Chief Minister, even if its recommendations have not yet received the approval of the Lieutenant Governor.
“Moreover, even if the elected government says that the matter is currently with the Lieutenant Governor, there is no justification for keeping the report away from public review,” Parra said.
