Srinagar April 17
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Patron and former chief minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed today underscored that his party's primary agenda is to facilitate amicable and just settlement of the Kashmir issue for the good of the people, it is, at the same time, very much conscious of the immediate developmental requirements in the state.
Addressing party workers meeting drawn from Noorabad, Shopian and Devsar constituencies here this morning, Mufti Sayeed said the feedback he is getting from the people, indicates some sluggishness in the momentum of the development process initiated in 2002. He said the very existence of PDP is based on a specific pro-people agenda and it would never compromise on the issues concerning the political and economic welfare of the people of the State.
Exhorting his party's cadres to reach out to the masses immediately to look into their problems and seek redressel of the same at the appropriate forums, Sayeed said as the public representatives, the primary task of the legislators must be mitigation of the sufferings of their people. Sayeed said one of the major challenges before the people of Jammu & Kashmir today is to tackle the problems of economic deprivation and societal troubles that have become key areas of concern for the people. He said a collective effort is needed to confront these critical problems and he and his party would be on the forefront of the war against the social evils, as has been done by it on the other major issues concerning the welfare of the State and its people.
Sayeed said striving for a dignified, peaceful and prosperous future for the people of the State, especially its youth, PDP would not confine its struggle to only providing a clean political set up and a progressive economic structure to Jammu & Kashmir, but would also address the social concerns of the people to gift a real welfare state to our coming generations. "While the primary concern of the society is the honorable rehabilitation of the victims of violence, equally important are the issues like the menace of corruption, crime and drugs," he said and added that his party would do whatever it can to take on these challenges.
In the end Sayeed emphasized that the PDP leaders and workers must prepare for playing a crucial role in shaping up a new and prosperous future for the people of Jammu & Kashmir, to realize their long-cherished dream of dignified peace and prosperity.
Senior PDP leaders Minister for Agriculture and Cooperatives Abdul Aziz Zargar, Nizam-ud-Din Bhat party MLC and Peerzada Mansoor Hussain were also present on the occasion.
