Strengthening of National Conference is in the overall interests of the State besides marginalizing communal and divisive elements”, he maintained.
He said his party’s commitment to welfare and economic emancipation of the weaker sections has further been reinforced after the revolutionary decisions taken in recent years, as also in the past, for opening of vistas of opportunities in different spheres of activity across the State. He said Omar Abdullah led Coalition Government has been working towards faster development and progress of all the three regions of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh besides their sub-regions.
