Special Status to Kashmir !!!!
by Shekhar Azad on Jun 24, 2008 03:23 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Root cause of Kashmir problem is the special status accorded to Kashmir.

Do you know the price of sugar in Kashmir?

2 Rs a Kg,
Rice - 1 R/Kg,
Wheat 50 Paise / KG

These freebies has costed Indian economy almost 200 Billion USD.

Just compare Budget of Srinagar City Corp Rs 500 crore with that of entire development fund for Assam Rs 400 Crore.

This special status has sucked Blood out of Indian Economy.

And supporters of Special status create Hue and cry .

Pathetic situation!!!!

This is not true.Please be fair. The price of teh comodities is as under in Kashmir:
Sugar RS. 20 to 25 per Kg
Rice Rs. 15 to 40 per Kg
Wheat Rs. 10 to 14 per Kg
Consequently the statement that the Budget of Srinagar city is more than budget of Assam shall also be incorrect. The higly deplorable condition of roads,drainage and other civil amenities do not support the budget theory of the learned Shekhar Azad.
Article 370 of the Indian Constitution is the bridge connecting the state of J&K with the Indian Union. Once it is repealed/abrogated the state of J&K comes out of the Union!
