PC committed to bring reprieve for the people of J&K: Vakil

J&K Peoples Conference senior Vice President and former Minister Abdul Gani Vakil today said that Peoples Conference will emerge to become the strongest voice of the people of J&K.

Vakil while addressing an impressive gathering in Nowpora, Sopore asserted that the PAGD has failed to provide a roadmap for restoration of Article 370 and are merely raising slogans to befool the people only to find a way back to power.

He also expressed disappointment over the step-motherly treatment being meted out to Kashmir by the incumbent administration and blamed the discriminatory policies propagated by the successive state governments in pushing Kashmir into throes of uncertainty. He maintained that if PC comes to power, the party will usher in a new era of development and upliftment of the people of J&K.

“People of J&K have been trapped in the post August 5, 2019 situation. The PC will stand up for them in our united quest to retrieve back that is rightfully ours. We at the PC believe that exiting changelessness is a big challenge and an even bigger challenge is navigating a dignified way out of the web of disempowerment,” Vakil said.

Speaking on the ocassion, PC leader Sulaiman Bhat said that the current administration, which is a ‘selected administration’ and not an ‘elected administration’, is indulging in economic persecution of the people of J&K, as a sequel to political persecution.

“We at the JKPC reiterate that economic empowerment is essential for political empowerment of the people of J&K. To bring reprieve for the people of J&K, we will work tirelessly to halt further erosion. We have no doubt that PC will emerge as a strong and viable political force in the coming Assmebly elections”, he added
