| J&K youth should be put at forefront: minister | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
Srinagar, Feb 6 : The youth in Jammu and Kashmir should be put at the forefront in every sector to lead the state towards prosperity and enable it to emerge as a "dignified and honourable" region, a minister has said.
"We have to bring our youth at forefront in every sector and lead the state towards prosperity utilising their potential in positive manner," Minister for Agriculture Ghulam Hassan Mir said, addressing a gathering yesterday in Kunzar in Baramulla district. In an apparent reference to separatist groups, Mir alleged that "leaders and political class" have shown Kashmiri youth the way to "graveyards". "I sincerely urge the political leadership across the board to show the path of prosperity, education, knowledge and honourable life to youth... Let youth set the criteria for their leadership," Mir, who is the president of Democratic Party Nationalist said. Commenting on the state government's policy of making agriculture as thrust area, Mir said it is the backbone of our state's economy and involves 70 per cent population. "We want to infuse competition among the farmers as it is the only sector which has maximum employment generation potential," he said.
