“Till now, our role was confined to rural pockets of J&K only but it has become imperative on part of AJKPC to spread its base in urban areas where the people are also facing the same difficulties and hardships as are being faced by the people of rural areas of J&K,” Sharma claimed adding that the elected representatives of ULBs voluntarily came forward under the banner of AJKPC in their mission of lessening public sufferings.
The AJKPC leader claimed that Panches, Sarpanches and BDCs in coordination with the representatives of ULBs would soon launch a decisive battle against mining mafia as the mafia has been ruling the roost in active connivance with officers of mining department.
