Asks NC cadre to defeat those who aligned with Modi
Srinagar: National Conference Provincial President Nasir Aslam Wani presided over a high-level workers’ meet for Sonawar Constituency and impressed on the NC cadre to ensure the party’s thumping victory in the Srinagar Parliamentary Seat.
Lauding the leadership and performance of Dr. Farooq Abdullah at the Center as a Senior Cabinet Minister in the UPA-II Government, Nasir said the people of Srinagar are represented in the Parliament by a strong, towering leader who has always represented the interests of his constituents unconditionally and unapologetically.
While highlighting the achievements of the Omar Abdullah led NC-Congress coalition government in the State, Nasir said that the previous five years of transparent and pro-people governance in the State have provided ample proof about the commendable work done in these years in the sectors of power generation, tourism, roads, health and education. In spite of the agitations that Kashmir faced in three subsequent years, development works were carried on unabated and with an unprecedented pace.
Nasir said that the creation of new Administrative Units has been a historic structural reform aimed at decentralization of power. Omar Abdullah led NC-Congress Government ensured that governance reaches the doorsteps of the people. It was NC founder Sher-e-Kashmir Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah’s vision that political captaincy was the ultimate right of the common man. Omar Abdullah infused new life into this dream and motto by bringing in the Right to Information Act and then creating new Administrative Units – a step aimed at improving the accessibility and efficiency of governance in the State.
Lashing out at PDP for warming up to Narendra Modi led BJP, Nasir said that PDP was trampling upon the sentiments of the people of this State by shamelessly praising a figure as divisive and communal as Modi. Now that PDP has realized and acknowledged defeat in its sinister designs to harm the NC-Congress ideological coalition, they are left with no option but to openly align with the RSS-mentored Modi team.
The functionaries, office bearers and workers assured the party leadership of their enthusiasm and passion in ensuring a thumping victory for the coalition candidate Dr. Farooq Abdullah.
Those who spoke on the occasion included District President NC Srinagar and MLA Zadibal Peer Afaq, MLA Sonawar Mohammad Yaseen Shah, MLC Ghulam Qadir Pardesi and Block President Sonawar Bashir Ahmed Ganai. Others present on the occasion included NC Provincial Secretary Advocate Showkat Ahmed Mir, NC Spokesman Junaid Azim Mattu, District Secretary Srinagar Mushtaq Ahmed Teli, Ms. Sabiya Qadri Provincial Secretary NC Womens’ Wing, youth leaders Najeeb Khan, Imran Nabi Dar, Ahsan Pardesi, Jehangir Yaqoob, Saleem Akhoon, Shujaat Chashoo, Hilal Ahmed Sofi, Student Leaders Imran Pandit and Rasik Bhat.
