Early Times Report
JAMMU, Feb 16: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has termed as "unfortunate" the perception about Kashmiri youths as "gun wielding boys or stone pelters" and voiced confidence that complaints of discrimination will melt away once the state reaches the pinnacle of development.
"Whenever the youth of the Valley is referred at any stage, it is unfortunate that they are being identified as gun wielding boys or stone pelters," Omar said while interacting with J&K scouts and guides at his residence. He said that "no doubt a section or a class exists which expresses its anger in abnormal manner but let the world identify a majority of our youth as icons of discipline and morality".
He said instead of playing the blame-game, efforts to should be made to identify the reasons for the "anger". Chief Minister said that his government will ensure that schools and colleges do not suffer due to the frequent strike calls.
"I realise you people had to face more problems on account of education but now it shall be our determined efforts that not a single child or student loses even a second during the coming academic session," the Chief Minister said.
"It is wish and desire of all to usher our state in arena of progress, self-sufficiency, prosperity and restoration of self confidence," he said, adding whenever, there are impediments, "anger is a natural phenomena but proper guidance and discipline makes a person positive in presenting his case".
