EC Manages To Find New Excuses To Delay Polls In JK: Omar Abdullah

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: National Conference vice president Omar Abdullah on Wednesday said the Election Commission seems to be in no hurry to conduct the assembly polls in Jammu and Kashmir and manages to find new excuses to delay the elections.
Abdullah wrote on Twitter “When asked about assembly elections in JK, the chief election commissioner acknowledged a ‘vacuum that needs to be filled’. Yet surprisingly the @ECISVEEP seems to be in no hurry to conduct elections, on the contrary they manage to find new excuses to delay polls.”
He was referring to the comments made by Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar at a presser in New Delhi where he acknowledged that there is “a vacuum that needs to be filled” in Jammu and Kashmir.
Omar said, “It has been eight years since the last assembly elections were conducted in JK, and five years since it had an elected government,” he said, adding that it’s plainly obvious the BJP in JK is terrified of facing the people but it isn’t the job of the Election Commission to give the BJP a shield to cower behind.

He was referring to the comments made by Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar at a presser in New Delhi called to announce the Karnataka poll dates.
Responding to a question on the fresh special summary revision of electoral rolls in the Union territory, the CEC said, “But nonetheless, it does not disturb the scheduled part, the conducting part that depends on various other factors which we will come back to you. We are aware that there is a vacuum that needs to be filled.”
Abdullah said it has been eight years since the last assembly elections were conducted in J-K, and five years since it had an elected government.
“It’s plainly obvious the BJP in J&K is terrified of facing the people but it isn’t the job of the Election Commission to give the BJP a shield to cower behind,” the former chief minister said.

Sisodia finding excuses to evade inquiry, says BJP

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Delhi BJP Working President Virendra Sachdeva on Sunday said Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was trying to find excuses to evade a probe in connection with the alleged liquor policy scam.
“It is really surprising that Sisodia has for long been saying that he was prepared for the inquiry and there was no scam in the liquor policy, but when the CBI called him for an inquiry, he started finding excuses to evade the inquiry,” Sachdeva said.
Sisodia said in a tweet on Saturday that the CBI wants to stop the ongoing development in Delhi.
“CBI has called me again on Sunday. They have put full force of CBI and ED against me. They raided my home, searched my bank locker but didn’t find anything. I have made arrangements of best education system in Delhi, they want to stop it. But I have always supported in their investigation and will do,” the Deputy Chief Minister said on Saturday.
On this, Sachdeva said Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s deputy, however, instead of appearing before the CBI, called the media to tell that ‘I have written a letter to CBI that I am preparing Delhi Budget, so need time to appear before them.’
“It’s surprising that yesterday (Saturday), Sisodia was confident that there was no evidence or case against him, but today, he sounded evasive,” he said.
The BJP leader said Sisodia seems to have an inkling that the agency has sufficient evidence against him as no arrest would be made without proof.
He said this while reacting to Sisodia claiming on Sunday that “the BJP may soon get me arrested through the CBI”.
