BISHNAH, Dec 17: Jammu & Kashmir National Conference Women's Wing President, Shameema Firdous on Sunday asserted that women have a significant role to play in shaping the better and peaceful future of Jammu and Kashmir and as such women cannot be ignored in any way.
She expressed this while addressing the one day Women's Convention of the party held at Village Deoli in Bishnah here today in which she was the Chief Guest.
The convention was organised by Bimla Luthra, State Vice President Women Wing JKNC in which Rattan Lal Gupta, Provincial President Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) Jammu presided over the function.
The senior NC Women leader stated that it is the determined, brave and motivated women in J&K who despite having been ignored and facing hardships under the incumbent dispensation continue to come forward to shoulder the critical responsibilities. She said that women are taking a lead in the movement for restoration of abridged rights of people of this region. She said that the present governance is marked by widening gender disparity in the region besides rising unemployment, development deficit and deepening uncertainty having affected everyone in the region. However, women are the worst sufferers amongst them as the prevailing political or social issues have had a devastating effect on their dignity and lives in J&K. Lauding the women for their marvelous role despite all odds, she urged them to continue their relentless fight for their rights.
Shameema said that along with the restoration of democracy, the struggle for the return of special privileges can be fought only when the National Conference is strong for which women have a crucial role to play. She asserted that National Conference is the sole guarantor of J&K's interests and for this it is necessary to remain present among the people, enquire about their problems and solving them.
Earlier, Bimla Luthra apprised the senior functionaries of the party about the problems being faced by the women folk and people residing in border areas.
Rattan Lal Gupta, Provincial President Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) Jammu, while accusing the Govt of total failure in J&K, has asserted that National Conference is the only solution to end the people's miseries thrust upon them by the incumbent Govt.
Gupta said that the people of Jammu and Kashmir have witnessed the worst form of governance under the incumbent Govt. He said that the BJP Govt at the Centre has brought anti-people policies that have virtually broken the backbone of the common people. He said that youth and women have become the worst sufferers during the present regime. He said that while the Govt makes tall claims about addressing the issues of youth, the fact remains that till date the Union Govt as well as the UT Administration have failed to address unemployment issue. Having become the worst victims of recruitment scams, the youth find themselves in quandary.
The senior NC leader also accused the incumbent UT Administration of totally ignoring on all fronts the people living in border areas. He said that the Govt failed to raise Border Battalion as promised and the result is that drug abuse continues to be on the rise due to unemployment among youth of these areas. |
