Jammu, Apr 22: The Gujjar Bakerwal community today expressed gratitude to coalition partners in Jammu and Kashmir for providing two seats in Legislative Council to senior Gujjar leader master Noor Hussain from Reasi and community sympathiser Jahangeer Hussain Mir from Poonch.
In a message of thanks separately sent to Indian National Congress president Sonia Gandhi and National Conference’ J&K’s chief Farooq Abdullah through Tribal Research and Cultural Foundation –a frontal organisation of Gujjars-the community expressed hope that both parties would also consider the candidature of at least one community leader for cabinet berth in awaiting expansion of ministry in the state.

He hoped that they will work vigorously for Gujjars and other marginalised communities in next six years as MLC.
