Apni Party Calls for Unified Push on Statehood
RK News Service Srinagar, June 9: Apni Party on Tuesday called for a united political approach to seek the restoration of statehood and other constitutional rights of Jammu and Kashmir, urging all stakeholders to set aside differences and engage with the Centre through a coordinated strategy. Addressing a press conference at the party headquarters in Srinagar, Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari said the partys Political Affairs Committee had recently reviewed the prevailing political situation and discussed the issue of restoring statehood to Jammu and Kashmir. Bukhari said the demand for statehood and constitutional rights should not be reduced to a party-specific agenda, asserting that it requires collective efforts by all political stakeholders. Let all stakeholders come together to identify and prioritise the issues, formulate a roadmap and then engage with the Centre in a coordinated and constructive manner, he said. Drawing parallels with Ladakh and Kargil, Bukhari said leaders there had set aside their differences to pursue common demands before New Delhi and stressed that political parties in Jammu and Kashmir should adopt a similar approach. He reiterated that the Apni Party believes meaningful progress on J&Ks issues can be achieved through dialogue and engagement with the Centre rather than confrontation. The Apni Party chief said the restoration of statehood remains the partys top priority, but added that other constitutional rights and guarantees that were withdrawn after August 5, 2019, also need to be restored. He specifically referred to the merger of the J&K IAS and KAS cadres with AGMUT and said such issues should also be taken up with the Centre. Bukhari further urged the Union Government to initiate dialogue with the people of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly the youth, recalling assurances made by the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister. Highlighting public concerns, he said unemployment among educated youth, corruption and the plight of prisoners deserving clemency remain major challenges that require urgent attention. He added that Apni Party would support any collective initiative aimed at raising genuine public issues with the Centre, irrespective of which political party leads the effort.
Ravi Reclaimed: Shaping Punjabs Past & Redefining Its Future
The countless stories which Ravi has been carrying through times of yore cannot be appropriated by a mere 78 years of conflict narrative between India and Pakistan COLONEL SATISH SINGH LALOTRA For centuries, the river Ravi has flowed through the heart of Punjabs history, culture and civilisation. Revered in ancient texts, celebrated in folklore, and crucial to the agricultural prosperity of the region, Ravi has been much more than a watercourse. Flowing through myriad names, the kind of which most of Indians may not be even aware of, viz., Vedic Parushni, Puranic Irvati, Greek Hydraotes, river Ravi is one such water body of our sub-continent which is arguably the most talked about, referred as well as venerated that meets its more than equal in the form of the Indus. It is not for nothing that the ubiquitous phrase- Heth Vage Ravi Darya or Below flows the river Ravi became the sine qua non in most of the songs and stories of Punjab, both past and contemporary. Most of the contemporary writers and poets of the Punjabi language in India lament that Punjabis have always written poetry and even prose around their rivers that have been left back in Pakistan. Whereas Pakistan, on the other hand, thinks most of Punjabs rivers have been left back in India. This is true more so in the case of the river Ravi, unlike other rivers of the Indus basin. With 23rd April 2026 having gone past, reminding all of us of the completion of more than one year of the holding in abeyance of the IWT ( Indus Water Treaty) in the wake of the infamous Pahalgam attack by Pakistan-based terrorists, it is time to cast a glance at one of the major river systems of this IWT ( Ravi) from an altogether different perspective. That of a water system which has bound both warring nations (India & Pakistan), ranging from livelihood, customs, culture, poetry and literature with each other for aeons. Unlike other rivers of the Indus basin, the Ravi is fed more by monsoon than by glaciers. Though having a modest yield, Ravis impact on the ecology and on human societies has been deep and nothing short of being stupendous. It would be worth each drop of water of the river Ravi to undertake a short ethnographical view of this water system on the eve of the first year of its scrapping( though temporarily) of the IWT by India that will enable the readers of this column of mine to understand its connection with its people, on both sides of the Radcliff line. Those who worship it, fear it, and on whose banks in 1929 the clarion call for the independence of India ( Poorna swaraj) was given by the first PM, Nehru, Ravi still rules the mental firmament of this sub-continent as no other river system. The precursor to this write-up of mine stemmed from my recent train journey ( Rajdhani Express) while coming back from my home town Jammu to Delhi and crossing the river Ravi that has been the traditional boundary between the erstwhile state of J&K and Punjab for centuries. The sight of still damaged Madhopur barrage on this river, wrought by last years torrential rains in August 2025, jolted me back to the stark realities of todays geopolitical situation as it confronts our sub-continent. The fact that the Pakistani side of Punjab was as badly affected by this rivers raging waves last monsoon as was the Indian side needs no elaboration. That river Ravi stood at the crossroads of all major historical events of this sub-continent dating back to the Indus valley civilisation circa 3300-2800 BC, so central that the first phase of Harappan urban development has been aptly named as Ravi phase is in itself a statement that needs no further elucidation. The fact that even the British placed this water body in the 1846 Treaty of Amritsar as a vital geographical and political boundary to define the newly formed borders of the Dogra princely state of J&K under its suzerainty, marking the regions official transition from Sikh rule to Dogra ownership, underscores Ravis relevance across myriad time lines. As if this was not enough, astounding discoveries talk of rosewood and deodar logs floating down the river 5000 years ago. Fish caught in its paleo channels forming an important part of the diet and surprisingly advanced urban development adapting to floods rather than merely fighting them, Ravi has much to offer to its admirers, cutting across myriad time lines. The fall of urban Harappa is also traced to the decisive avulsion of the river away from the settlement. As river Parushni in Rigveda, circa 1500 BC, Ravis banks were the battleground for Dashrajna or the war of the Ten kings. Indira, the lord of the free-flowing rivers, is described as crossing the woolly foam of Parushni. And even today, Gaddi shepherds set off on their long remembered migratory routes with woolly sheep along this river. Somewhere around the 5th century BC, ancient grammarian Yaska recorded that the Parushni of the Rig-Veda is same as Iravati. It is Iravati that is found in Ramayana and Mahabharata, where Sita found refuge in its forested banks. Yaksa saysThey call it Iravati as Parushni; a mountain river with a sinuous path. In the headwater forests deep in the valleys of Himachal Pradesh are found the conifer trees going by the name Rei, and hence the name of Ravi. In the 4th century BC, Alexander of Macedonia sailed the Ravi several times, forded it and, as was his habit, drove the native tribes to a bloody battle. The Greeks recorded the river as Hydraotis or Hyarotis at that time. If one goes further upstream in Himachal Pradesh, the headwaters of the Ravi were always the lifeline of the relatively isolated Chamba kingdom. The river system connected high mountain passes and fierce deities with the capitals of Bharmour and Chamba. The ancient Manimahesh Kailash yatra still traces its origins from this
Cockroach Janta Party: The Questions Its Leadership Cannot Escape
For a movement that seeks to shape public opinion on a national scale, scrutiny is not unfair. It is unavoidable MANZOOR BHAT The Image CJP Wants India to See Over the past few months, the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has rapidly transformed from a little-known social media phenomenon into a movement that commands national attention. Through carefully crafted messaging and an aggressive online presence, it has projected itself as an independent platform representing ordinary Indians against an unresponsive political establishment. To its supporters, CJP is the voice of the common citizen. To its critics, however, the movement raises questions that become more difficult to ignore with every passing day. The debate surrounding CJP is no longer about its slogans or its social media campaigns. The real debate is about the people behind the movement, the political networks surrounding them, and whether the image being presented to the public reflects the full reality. As with every political movement that rises rapidly and claims to represent millions, the most important place to begin is not with what it says, but with who is leading it. The Man Behind the Movement At the centre of CJP stands its founder, Abhijeet Dipke. For a movement that presents itself as an independent citizens initiative, Dipkes political background has become a subject of increasing scrutiny. Public reports and archived material have linked him to the Aam Aadmi Partys social media ecosystem, while old posts attributed to him reportedly show him expressing gratitude towards senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia and reaffirming his commitment to the party. Dipke has maintained that he stepped away from active political involvement after moving to the United States for higher studies. However, that explanation has done little to silence questions. In an age where political campaigns, digital operations, and narrative-building are increasingly conducted online, physical distance means very little. Critics, therefore argue that the more relevant question is not whether Dipke left India, but whether he truly left the political ecosystem he had been associated with. On their own, such associations are not evidence of wrongdoing. India is a democracy, and political participation is a legitimate right. However, the issue is not whether Dipke once had political affiliations. The issue is whether the public is being given the complete picture. When a movement presents itself as a fresh alternative to conventional politics while being led by individuals with documented political histories, questions naturally arise about how independent that movement truly is. This is where the story begins to move beyond personalities and towards patterns. The Faces Around the Movement The questions surrounding CJP do not end with its founder. If anything, they become even more interesting when one examines the individuals the movement recently appointed as its public faces. When CJP announced Ashutosh Ranka, Vijeta Dahiya, and Saurav Das as official spokespersons, the decision immediately attracted attention because each of them carried baggage from the same political ecosystem that CJP insists it stands apart from. Among the three, Ashutosh Rankas links are perhaps the most direct. Ranka previously served as both a national spokesperson and state spokesperson for the Aam Aadmi Party in Rajasthan. For years, he represented the party in public debates, authored opinion pieces defending its positions, and regularly appeared in television discussions as one of AAPs recognised voices. His presence within CJP, therefore, raises an obvious question. If the movement is genuinely detached from traditional party structures, why are former party spokespersons occupying such visible positions within its leadership? Vijeta Dahiya presents a different but equally interesting case. While he was never formally enrolled as an AAP office- bearer, his public record reflects extensive support for the party and its campaigns. He actively promoted AAP during previous elections and became associated with a broader digital ecosystem that frequently aligned itself with opposition narratives. Dahiya is also known for his work as a researcher and scriptwriter for Dhruv Rathee, a prominent political commentator who has publicly expressed support for AAP on multiple occasions. The third spokesperson, Saurav Das, further complicates the picture. While not an official AAP functionary, Das built a reputation through activism, investigative reporting, and commentary that often intersected with issues involving senior AAP leadership. His name gained wider attention during legal controversies related to reporting and social media commentary surrounding the Delhi excise policy case. Critics have long argued that his work frequently aligned with narratives favourable to the party and its leadership. Viewed individually, each of these backgrounds can be explained away as a coincidence. Yet politics is not usually analysed through isolated coincidences. It is analysed through recurring patterns. When a movement that claims to be independent repeatedly places individuals with links, sympathies, or professional histories connected to the same political ecosystem at the centre of its public operations, scepticism becomes inevitable. The question is no longer about a single individual. It becomes a question about the ecosystem from which the movement has emerged. A Familiar Political Playbook Indian politics has witnessed this model before. More than a decade ago, the anti-corruption movement led by Anna Hazare captured the imagination of millions. It began as a citizens movement that claimed to stand above political parties and ideological divisions. Yet over time, that movement evolved into the Aam Aadmi Party, one of the most successful political experiments in modern Indian history. The lesson from that period was simple. Public anger can be transformed into political capital. Many critics see echoes of that strategy in the rise of CJP. Once again, a movement has emerged claiming to represent ordinary citizens against a flawed system. Once again, social media serves as the primary engine of mobilisation. Once again, anti-establishment messaging forms the core of its public identity. The similarities do not automatically prove coordination or control. But they are significant enough to invite scrutiny. Political movements are rarely judged solely by what they claim to be. They are judged by their methods, their leadership, and the broader context in which they emerge. This broader context makes the
