Srinagar :The only platform of interaction among our different regions between all religions and ethnic groups has now come to end. A demographic change that hits at the vitals of our society in J&K has been affected on the pluralistic culture of our 5,000 year history by the absurd, illogical, ill-conceived decision of the BJP Govt by cancelling a 149 years old practice to end the concept of Darbar Move in J&K.
This was stated by ANC Sr.Vice President Muzzafar Shah while addressing the Media at ANC headquarters in Srinagar today along with ANC Senior leaders Adv.Mir Mohd Shafi, Mir Aman ullah Kant, Ab.Rashid Wani, Iftikhar Banday, Deen Mohd Wani and Rahi Riyaz Ahmad.
This decision of stopping the Darbar Move, a unique exercise conducted to preserve the Culture ,religious and economic parameters of the diverse and sensitive land locked Himalayan state was dealt a major blow which would have severe implications and repercussions Politically, Socially, administratively and economically throughout J&K state. The economics of both the regions were interdependent on each other and self-serviced by the age-old practice of Darbar move that oiled the economies of both regions without outside help. We will forget each other after we stop visiting between Jammu and Kashmir. That will put a halt on our social, Cultural, religious and economic bonding that stood the test of time for centuries in spite of all challenges and turmoils since the last 149 years. Money is no consideration to the death blow to our secular credentials exhibited from all sides, Muzzafar Shah said.
The ANC makes a fervent appeal on behalf of people from all regions of J&K to the Prime Minister of India to cancel this unwarranted and illogical black law and restore the Darbar move practice in J&K to uphold its 1000’s of years of history preserved and protected by every citizen of this State.
