Srinagar, Mar 25: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate for Anantnag Parliamentary constituency, Tassaduq Hussain Mufti today stressed for preservation of natural beauty and precious resources which he said are biggest assets of the Valley.
Addressing an election meeting at Awantipora in South Kashmir, Tassaduq said: “Over the years, due to varied reasons, a lot of damage has been done to Kashmir’s natural landscape with unregulated and ill-conceived developmental initiatives being the main cause for this disaster. It can only be undone when everyone among us starts realizing the importance of ecological restoration and its sustainability.”
He said the real empowerment of the people lies in stability and sustainability of the natural systems and for that we all must work together for the sake of our future generations. He said the common goal for economic and social empowerment has to be pursued that shall not compromise our future.
Tassaduq said: “This is the dream of my life. I have been working silently on this front. And my role is to bring consciousness on this vital issue among the people. If I will be able to motivate a single individual to pursue this goal, that is my success.” He said our overall growth is directly dependent on natural resources, so we must plan our development by taking due care of our environment.
Minister for Finance, Dr Haseeb Drabu said Tassaduq is not only the son of a political stalwart but also a successful individual in his area of work and his presence will bring a new dimension to the political discourse of the State.
Dr Drabu stressed for strengthening of Tassaduq’s hands so that he can pursue his ideas with great conviction and energy for the larger good of the State and its people.
