We have to build solidarities across communities and undo injustices perpetrated on our people. It is only NC that can defend the genuine political, cultural, employment, developmental, and economic interests of the people of JK in the evolving situation. we have to remain cautious of the multiple enclaves that are being flaunted to weaken our ranks, and divide our voice,” he said.
