The new entrants were welcomed into the party fold by Altaf Bukhari who in a released statement to the press said Shopian holds high value in the demography of Jammu and Kashmir and many power hungry politicians have used the people of Shopian as mere vote bank during elections on pretext of restoring Articles 370 and 35-A.

Power hungry politicians have sent their children abroad to study leaving the youth of the valley astray for their own political gimmick. The traditional politicians have been unmasked and now Apni Party will pave way towards the betterment and welfare of the common masses especially for the Youth in terms of empowerment, employment and other welfare measures,” he said.
