In an another jolt to the Peoples Democratic Party, the MLC and senior leader Yasir Reshi also decided to quit the party appealing political leaders to rise against the two family rule system in state.
“I am in complete conformity with the views expressed by my colleagues, to find an alternative to the traditional two-family system in state. The only way out is to give chance to a new leadership,” he said in an official handout.
Reshi maintains that state needs a respite from the tried, tested and failed two-family power sharing model.
Justifying his decision of leaving the party, Reshi said that Jammu and Kashmir is facing multiple challenges on the governance, law and order and the societal distress.
He said that successive regimes have failed to face these challenges resulting in anarchical type of situation.
Hinting towards the formation of third front against the two party systems in Kashmir, Reshi appeals to politicians of state to rise to the occasion and collectively, cutting across party lines, built a consensus on a leadership which has the capacity of countering these challenges.
Pertinently, the PDP is going through a major political crisis after many of its senior leaders decided to quit the party including Imran Raza Ansari, Abid Ansari, Mohammad Abas Wani, Javaid Baig and some others.
It is believed that as many as 14 leaders in the party are mulling to create a new political front in state and form the government with BJP after the culmination of Amarnath Yatra.
