JAMMU: Asking people of every region, ideology and religion to jointly fight for resolving issues confronting the State, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti today said J&K has been the biggest victim of the subcontinent’s Partition of 1947.

“The people of Jammu and Kashmir have been suffering since Partition of 1947 unlike any other state,” Ms Mufti said while addressing a gathering of the displaced persons on the occasion of launch of Package of Financial Assistance for the Displaced Persons from PoK. She asked people of the state to join hands and lead in unbundling the knots which have tied them in a quagmire of uncertainty and hopelessness.

The Chief Minister said she wishes the relations between the two countries (India and Pakistan) improve so that there is maximum trade and people’s interactions resulting into a consequential benefit to the people of the State.

Ms Mufti also sought the help of all stakeholders in accomplishing this saying it is her earnest desire to see the breeze of harmony, friendship and peace sweep the entire region so that South Asia gets rid of poverty, illiteracy, disease and destruction.

She said wars all around have left behind a trail of death, destruction and displacement only. She said people of the state hold an important responsibility of ensuring and leading to friendly relations between India and Pakistan. (AGENCIES)
