Conspiracy

Mid Eighties, Indian politicians had evolved a formula to dislodge the state chief Minister and usurp power. The easiest way was to dislodge by inciting a communal disturbance.

Feb, 1986, Mufti Mohammad Syed, the then State Indian National Congress President applied the tested but outdated formula to dislodge the government of Kh. G M Shah Sahib and takeover the throne.

 He blew a street quarrel between the two participants of opposite communities at Residency Road beyond proportion. Gave it a communal colour and fueled it to the hilt by panic.

The first busload of Kashmiri labourers from his neighbouring village Wanpoh arrived without notice untimely unscheduled to their home at the dead of night. When Ramzana was asked about the welfare of Subhana, he heroically cooked a story that he could narrowly save his skin, while the rest had been massacred by the Hindu zealots.

The government, while in deep sleep, was taken unaware and napping. The panic worked as it was plotted. Hindu temples and Hindu households became the first target of the victims of panic.  

By this time the Chief Boss and his crew in Delhi had become wiser. Syllabus was changed instantaneously and the ‘formula’ enacted was declared fractious throughout the country. It gave a big jolt to Mufti Sahib, who had crammed and planned the outdated syllabus with great efforts.

1990, in view of his little work, the then Prime Minister of India V P Singh who had himself failed to rule as Chief Minister, inducted him into his cabinet  as the Home Minister of India.

Mufti Sahib is one of the best schemers. He is the author of Rubiya Syed episode, 1986 conspiracy and has befooled the nation and the Prime Minister of India very often.
