JK govt legitimised corruption: PDP

Jammu, Nov 10: Opposition People's Democratic Party in Jammu and Kashmir today alleged the ruling NCP-Congress coalition in the state has "failed on all fronts" and "legitimised" corruption.

"The state government headed by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has not only failed on all fronts but has also legitimised corruption in the state," PDP general secretary Thakur Balbir Singh said at a meeting of party activists here.

He said during the 2008 Assembly elections, NC had promised to introduce a series of reforms if elected to power but "they are yet to fulfill their commitment". Former MLA and senior PDP leader Santi Devi claimed during the last three years the government had done nothing to solve the problems of the common man.

"The common man is finding it hard to survive as a result of the stringent policies introduced by the state government," she said.
