KATHUA, Mar 22: National Conference, Women Wing provincial vice president, Bimla Luthra today said that secular ethos remains core of political philosophy of National Conference (NC).
Addressing women workers at Kathua, Luthra claimed that NC is committed to empower women and youth and to ensure equitable opportunities of progress in all the regions and sub-regions of J&K.
She said that NC has a track record of serving people and this spirit is needed to be sustained and promoted by further strengthening the bonds between communities and regions.
“The youth stands pushed to the wall due to slow pace of recruitment process and shrinking job avenues. This is required to be addressed on priority and fast-track basis,” the NC leader maintained.
She flayed the elements with vested interest to create wedge between different segments of the society for furthering their political agenda and said that this is against the secular fabric of J&K.
She urged upon the people to stand united to foil all such attempts.
Luthra hoped that people will reject the reactionary and backward looking politics by renewing their trust on NC.
She was accompanied by Pinky Khalsa.
Prominent among those present on the occasion were Ajeet Kumar, district NC president Kathua; K.K Bakshi, district secretary Kathua; Shakeel Ahmed, Pardeep Kesar, Suresh Sharma, Davinder Mehta, Harjeet Singh, Parveen Kousar Bhatti, Ashu Rajput, Fatima Begum, Manisha Sharma, Shabnam, Kavita Sharma and others.
