NC committed to seek justice for all communities in J&K: Shameema Firdous | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, Apr 1: One day convention of J&K National Conference women wing was held at Dhabber in Bishnah Constituency. The convention was organized by Bimla Luthra, former MLA and UT Vice President women wing. Addressing the functionaries, Shameema said that there is no precedence in the country, whereby a state was demoted and bifurcated that too without the consent of people. "Earlier we used to see UTs being converted into states, but in case of J&K, the trend has been reversed. JK has been the worst ever casualty of this undemocratic turn of events. One of the projected dreams advertised to market the decisions of August 5 2019 measures was to bring JK at par with other states. Have we really been brought at par with other states? The answer, we all know is plain "no". Our people have no say in administration. Our land and job rights have been liquidated. Ours was a region that used to be emblematic of country's secular and democratic traditions; unfortunately this crown has been sheared of its glitter," said Shameema. Condemning the 'unfair' demolition at Bathindi, Shameema said that since BJP had its hands on power in New Delhi and J&K, the socially and economically backward communities have particularly fallen prey to its sinister designs. The selective witch hunt, she said, also gives vent to the derision that ruling BJP nurtures for socially and economically backward communities of J&K. Provincial President Jammu Rattan Lal Gupta said, "Sher-e-Kashmir Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah kept the torch of secularism aflame all his life. We don't need anybody's certificate for our secular credentials. The biggest asset and the legacy of the party is its immense faith in unity in diversity, which it has demonstrated during most testing times of its history. The National Conference has is and will remain in the forefront to seek justice for the people of all the regions and the sub-regions. Public interest is sacrosanct for us." Expressing concern over soaring unemployment in J&K, Bimla Luthra said, "The periodic Labour Force Survey April-June 2021 released by the statistics and programme implementation ministry is in stark contrast to the false realities projected by the centre on fostering employment in Jammu & Kashmir after the article was revoked. The data published by the premier government agency flies in the face of the central government and the Jammu and Kashmir administration's claims on swelling employment opportunities." |
