POONCH, Dec 15: President, Apni Party, Syed Mohammed Altaf Bukhari today said that Apni Party has emerged as a hope among the people of J&K amid rise in the feeling of hopelessness. He said the acceptance of the policies and developmental agenda of the party has attracted the people because the party was able to give them protection of land and jobs in an atmosphere where the traditional political parties again restored to rhetoric of regional political divide whereas we worked for unity, equality, development, and employment.
"This policy has brought the people close to the party and they have accepted the Apni Party as their representative. When other political parties were not ready to speak for the public, it was the Apni Party which stood up and raised its voice while meeting the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister with regard to the issues of J&K," he said.
He said that the regional political parties followed the Apni Party's agenda and also met the Prime Minister even though they were opposed to us initially. "These regional political parties know they have lost their ground and people do not trust them anymore. They multiplied the problems of the people with their emotional slogans for vote bank," he said.
The Apni Party President was speaking at a public meeting at Krishan Chander Park in Poonch District. The meeting was organized by District President, Poonch, and Ex-MLA Shah Mohammed Tantray. "We have not forgotten Article 370 and Article 35A. We have continued our struggle for its restoration. As the matter is before the apex court of the country, we will fight it there and also raise our voice before concerned quarters so that our demand is accepted," he said.
Expressing his concern over the plight of the people due to underdevelopment, unemployment, poor health infrastructure in Poonch, he said that the assembly elections are a must in J&K. "These elections should not be delayed further. The people have suffered the most and the bureaucracy is unmoved with the issues of the people. There must be an accountability which can be fixed when there is an elected government in J&K. Therefore, the government must announce assembly elections but restore statehood first," he said. |
