SRINAGAR, Aug 31: The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference today said that people of J&K are looking up for the restoration of their battered self respect, political and constitutional rights.
This was said by Party’s senior leader and Former Legislature Abdul Rahim Rather while addressing a gathering of party’s workers of Block Pakharpura at Yusmarg. The meeting saw a huge participation of the party’s local functionaries.
While addressing the workers, Rather said the party had foretold the repercussions of bringing anti Kashmir forces into power during the run up for 2014 state elections. He said the situations which enfolded afterwards vindicated the party and also acted as an eye opener for the people once for all. He said the dividends in the shape of development, employment and progress, which were achieved by the party decade after, have been revered by the forces which are inimical to Jammu and Kashmir. He added that the party had bequeathed a flourishing democratic system and institutions to the successive Government but all that has been reduced to ashes.
He said that there are elements, which still want to sow the seeds of discord among the people of Jammu and Kashmir to add color to their nefarious designs. “Such forces are coming forward in the shape of different parties and individuals. NC is fighting a multifront battle. On one hand Dr Farooq Abdullah is spearheading the PAGD for the restoration of our constitutional rights on the other hand the party has to salvage the people, especially the youth from the looming uncertainty in the region. It is the active support of people, which keeps us going. We all have to strengthen the fortress of NC if we want to guard the individuality and selfhood of Jammu and Kashmir. Only NC has the grit to take on the challenges confronting JK people,” he added.
Rather exhorted the workers to strengthen the party and take the party manifesto to every door step in the entire constituency.
