| PDP changed destiny of JK residents: Mufti | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Mar 3: Former Chief Minister and eoples Democratic Party (PDP) patron, Mufti Muhammad Sayed today urged the people to use democratic ways to change the corrupt system in the state. He was interacting with prominent citizens of West Assembly Segment in Sarwal arera.
Sayeed said that PDP had only 16 members after 2002 Assembly elections but it was all due to the convictions and visions of the party that a new chapter of peace and development was scripted during PDP led regime.
"On the one hand, PDP led regime had laid foundation of policies of peace and reconciliation, while on the other hand a path of equitable development was carved out in the State during that period.
During our regime developmental policies and programmes were formulated by incorporating wishes and aspirations of all regions and sub-regions", he said.
He made a mention of mega projects funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) started in Jammu city. "A comprehensive water supply scheme was launched for the residents of Jammu West area during our regime", he said and added that it was only during the regime of PDP that local bodies were strengthened to trickle down power of governance at grass root level.
He added that PDP led regime had strengthened relations among different regions and sub-regions of the state and created a sense of faith and confidence among people of all the regions.
Commenting on corruption and chaos in the State during the last three years, PDP patron called upon the people to teach a lesson to the present corrupt regime in the coming civic body's elections.
"The coming civic bodies elections would be an appropriate time to bring positive change in the prevailing system through democratic means", he observed.
Mufti said that formation of PDP was a turning point in the history of Jammu and Kashmir because National Conference had never allowed democracy to flourish her. "Before formation of PDP, there was hegemony of NC in the State and this party (NC) never allowed any other political group to flourish in Kashmir Valley", he said and expressed satisfaction that PDP has been emerged a strong alternative of NC.
"PDP in theonly party in state which has earned credibility and faith of the people within a very short span", he said.
He added that PDP was formed in 1999 with an aim to restore peace and to uphold dignity and honour of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
"Aim of PDP is not to attain power but to address grievances of the people," he said and observed that biggest achievement of his party was that it had connected itself with the common masses and restored confidence of the people in democratic institutions. He said that after Kashmir Valley, PDP has been received overwhelming response in Jammu region also. "The way people in Jammu joining our party is a clear indication that PDP has been emerged a voice of the people of all regions and sub-regions of the State".
