SRINAGAR, Apr 26: The Jammu & Kashmir National Conference President and Member of the Parliament from Srinagar, Dr Farooq Abdullah today said that opportunistic politicians pose a bigger threat to the historical individuality and cultural uniqueness of Jammu and Kashmir.
He made these remarks while addressing party workers and functionaries from Sangrama constituency at the party headquarters Srinagar today. Party general secretary Ali Mohd Sagar, chief spokesperson Tanvir Sadiq, senior leaders Sakina Itoo, Irfan Shah, YNC Provincial president Salman Ali Sagar, Provincial secretary Showkat Mir, District president Srinagar Peer Afaq, Reyaz Bedar, GN Bhat, JS Azad were also present on the occasion.
“People have recognized the true face of these opportunists, who behind their deceptive facades are working towards dividing our voice and strength,” Farooq said adding, “They know that they cannot stand the test of democracy. Whenever elections are held, people will teach them a lesson. How long can they run away from facing people? One or the other day, they have to face them. However I’m sure that people won’t allow them to play with their honour and dignity.”
Stressing on the importance of maintaining unity in the ongoing struggle for restoration of J&K’s rights, Farooq said, “I see no way of achieving anything in J&K without a lasting unity between different sections of our society. Unity in diversity must be our creed to last for all times and under all circumstances, otherwise, there is no end in sight to our common problems in the shape of poverty, unemployment.”
