| PDP brought political accountability to J&K by establishing strong opposition opposition: Mufti | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Nov 1: Seeking a strong mandate to change the destiny of Jammu and Kashmir, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed today said that his party brought political accountability to the state by establishing a strong opposition.
Addressing PDP workers convention of Pulwama Assembly segment here, Mr Sayeed said the people now look up to the PDP with great hope and expectation for bringing stable peace and inclusive prosperity to the State.
"I am today seeking votes not just to form the Government, but to win in the crusade for restoring Jammu and Kashmir to its rightful place," he said, adding that with the wholehearted push from the people, we can save the State from the future miseries of the misrule and anarchy which was rampant during the past 6 years.
Expressing satisfaction at the steady growth of PDP, as a platform for change, Mr Sayeed said the credit goes to the disciplined, dedicated and ideologically motivated cadres of the party and people living in all the regions of the state.
"It is because of the uphill struggle of our cadres and the growing public support for our agenda that PDP has emerged as a respectable and formidable voice channelising aspirations of the people across regions, religions and communities," he said.
He said the agenda of the PDP could to a large extent respond to the complex problems of the state, faced as it is with decades' long political uncertainty, development deficit, unfulfilled aspirations, mounting unemployment, corruption, nepotism and favoritism. Mr Sayeed said while the performance of the party in the Lok Sabha elections represents a watershed in the state's political and democratic history it also comes as a challenge to its leadership and cadres. "The Lok Sabha elections represented the crucial step forward in investing the electoral process in the state with much needed credibility and one can hope it serves to inspire the people to exercise their franchise more effectively in the upcoming assembly elections in order to shape a new future for the state," he said. Mr Sayeed said people have a clear choice from among the political parties who are in the field to seek their mandate. "We hope that people would judge us on our performance during our brief stint in the government, in opposition and on the basis of the agenda of change that we placed before them," he added.
The PDP patron said on the development front various landmark initiatives are in the pipeline and the same would be put to implementation once thehis party gets the mandate to form next government in the State. He said given its horticulture and agriculture potential, district Pulwama and Shopian can be developed as a hub of Food Processing industry which now constitutes an important segment of the Indian economy.
"To create a synergy between industry and agriculture, Mega Food Parks would be established in various parts of the State to make it self-sufficient and leader in processing of perishables and other food products including fruits," he said, adding such initiatives would not only lead to creation of wealth in the State but generate huge employment avenues as well. |
