Srinagar March 03: Peoples Conference president Sajad Gani Lone on Monday lashed out at the National Conference over Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha’s speech, saying it was indistinguishable from a possible speech.

Sajad Lone took to his official X handle and wrote that the LG’s address was indistinguishable from a possible BJP speech, had they been in power.

“There seems to be total ideological overlap. the speech doesn’t even remotely talk about Article 370, Article 35 A," Sajad Lone wrote on X.

“No mention of 5 August 2019. No mention of the reorganisation Act,” the post reads.

The LG’s speech was drafted by the elected government to outline its policy and achievements.

Lone said the NC government has finally done away with ornamentalism.

“They don’t even want to pretend to have anything to do with Article 370. I remember how during the election campaign it was all about Article 370, and how all others are BJP. And now the ideological overlap,” he wrote on X.

He said LG’s address was a visionless statement of the government.

“And if this address was a vision statement of the government, it is as visionless as it can get," Lone said.

He said it was a generalised departmental statement without any new political, social or economic initiative.

"So be prepared for an aimless, visionless spell of governance, bereft of any newness in approach or any creativity,” he said.
