RAJOURI, Dec 13: Provincial president Youth wing of National Conference Ajaz Jan today said that J&K is passing through a difficult phase and need of the hour is to strengthen the hands of Dr Farooq Abdullah and Omar Abdullah to steer it to peace, progress and development.
Addressing NC workers meeting at Manjakote in district Rajouri along with Zonal Legal Advisor Muzaffar Khan today, Jan said that the tall claims made by the ruling government at the Centre with regard to unprecedented development in Jammu and Kashmir after abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A has proved to be hoax but the reality is that the situation has gone from bad to worst. A common man in Jammu and Kashmir is suffering on account of wrong policies of the government, he added.
The senior NC leader castigated the BJP Govt at the Centre and its proxy Govt in Jammu and Kashmir for plunging this state into instability by depriving the people of electing a representative Govt through a democratic process.
During the meeting Muzaffar Khan, apprised the senior functionary about the problems being faced by the people of hilly areas of Rajouri and the issues were deliberated at length to address the same.
Khan said that the utter mis-governance by the incumbent non-representative dispensation in the state has piled up the miseries of the common people and there is nobody to listen to their woes. He said that remote areas have been the worst victims of the misgovernance where people’s pressing issues are not being addressed. He accused the BJP Government of stalling all the pilot projects initiated by the National Conference in the hilly Rajouri region, not to talk of starting any new project in the region by the present govt.
Ajaz Jan asked the party workers to remain present among the people at the grass roots level and address their day to day problems. He asked them to make the people aware about the achievements of the party especially during the NC regime in the erstwhile State of Jammu and Kashmir. While impressing upon the people to vote for NC in the impending Assembly elections, Jan appealed to the government for announcing elections at the earliest seeking end to the political instability.  Senior members Aslam Khan-Block president, Tassaduq Khan- Sarpanch, Manzoor Malik Block president, Farooq Mughal- Sarpanch, Shamim Mughal, Mukhtar Mirza, Anjum Shawl, Sarpanch Ayub and others were also present on the occasion.
