Effort was also made to ensure that there should be no injustice to anyone.\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The cabinet today morning met at Jammu to discuss implementation of the cabinet sub-committee\u2019s report on rationalization of the reservation policy.<\/p>\n<p>Without naming anyone, Omar said those who were accusing them of doing nothing on the reservation are now threatening agitation. \u201cIt is easy to do politics on the issue. Those who were taunting us, saying that we had done nothing on reservation, are now saying if you do this, we will launch an agitation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The CM said that they couldn\u2019t have done more on the reservation. \u201cWe couldn\u2019t have carried out a more detailed exercise than this. Every issue was looked into. The issue was discussed more than once. This is the third or fourth time that the issue has come before the cabinet. The cabinet sub-committee took six months to complete the exercise,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Omar, however, refused to disclose the cabinet\u2019s decision on the reservation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt wouldn\u2019t be right to comment on this issue more unless we will sign minutes of the cabinet meeting and send it to LG for approval,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The CM said the reservation has not been rationalised to satisfy any individual, but was an election commitment made to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. \u201cThe friends you are referring to wouldn\u2019t be satisfied with anything. They wouldn\u2019t be satisfied by any measure. We have not done this to satisfy anyone. Nobody should presume that it was done to satisfy him. It is an effort from our side to fulfill the commitment made to the people of J&amp;K,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Minister said that the Election Commission of India should address concerns of the political parties over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is the duty of the Election Commission to hold elections in a transparent manner and ensure that nobody should have grievances about it. If there are apprehensions with regard to the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), the Election Commission should call all political parties and make them understand there is no need to panic about SIR,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Omar said he has never raised finger of suspicion on electronic voting machines. \u201cI don\u2019t believe that elections can be manipulated through EVMs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He, however, added that election can be manipulated through other means.\u00a0 \u201cIf you look at the delimitation exercise carried out here, it was also an election manipulation. You increased six seats in Jammu to benefit one party,\u201d he said.
