Clueless Vohra begs Kashmir separatists to keep peace



Even as both Jammu and Kashmir regions are burning, the state government and the union do not have any solutions to the issues confronting the state, which have turned it into an violent inferno.

Jammu burnt for 40 days and is still burning due to the Amarnath agitation and now Kashmir is burning and Governor NN Vohra has no clue except for appeasing for peace and bending his back to placate the separatists. Vohra perhaps has never lost his kith and kin in violence and neither have most of the politicians in Kashmir valley, who are leading masses to commit harakiri.


15 people were killed in Jammu during Amarnath protests while, the police firing has claimed 13 lives in Kashmir valley. It is pertinent to mention that people of Jammu are demanding that and be transferred to the Amarnath Shrine Board, where as PDP, NC and Hurriyat, the Kashmir based parties are opposing the same.




In a repeat of what he has been doing since he assumed office, Governor, N N Vohra, today in a televised appeal, attributed the prevailing unrest to unfounded suspicions and misconceptions.


Referring to the movement of supplies and transportation of fruit to and from the Valley, the Governor said that, notwithstanding the sporadic attempts to create obstacles in smooth vehicular movement for a day or two, the Srinagar-Lakhanpur National Highway has been fully sanitized and round-the-clock traffic movement ensured. Since the past 12 days, over 9000 trucks carrying fruit, merchandise, medicines petroleum products/LPG cylinders and other essential commodities have been transported from both the sides, which includes 800 truckloads of Kashmiri fruit transported to the plains.

Vohra saw no justification in the Muzzafarabad Chalo Call and said that the fruit mandis all over the country were eagerly awaiting for the Kashmiri fruit. He appreciated the need for uninterrupted transportation of apple during the current fruit season and said that he was himself monitoring the movement of fruit and essential supplies on the National Highway. He also referred to the measures taken to carry supplies in convoys with police escorts, fitted with wireless sets having direct communication with Police Control Rooms, and mobile patrolling under the supervision of the concerned District Superintendents of Police. He said that the Chief Secretary has been asked to monitor the movement of to ensure supplies round-the-clock smooth and uninterrupted flow.
