I have already introduced a private member\u2019s bill in the Assembly to restore leases and safeguard people\u2019s land. The PDP\u2019s press conference on this issue is nothing but political drama.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He emphasized that no bill or resolution meant for the Assembly can be publicized before being tabled.\u00a0\u201cWhile we quietly worked for the people, PDP chose to create noise for attention. We act while they act out,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Responding to statements made by PDP President Mehbooba Mufti and opposition leader Sunil Sharma, Sadiq said both the PDP and BJP appear to be following the same script.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYesterday\u2019s press conferences by PDP and BJP show they receive dictation from the same place. Their language and tone are identical. They no longer sound like opposition parties, but like spokespersons of the LG administration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Condemning the LoP&#8217;s attempt to link the restoration of statehood to civilian killings, Tanvir called the remarks \u201cdeeply unfortunate and insensitive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt is shocking that opposition leaders would politicize tragedy. This exposes the BJP and its proxies, who are working hand-in-glove to divert attention from real issues,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MLA Tanvir moves Private Member\u2019s Bill to restore original \u2018Land Grants Act\u2019 KT News Desk Srinagar, Oct 09:\u00a0National Conference (NC) Chief Spokesperson and MLA Zadibal Tanveer Sadiq Thursday reaffirmed the party\u2019s commitment to provide genuine relief to the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
