Will hold parlays with disgruntled leaders: PDP

Srinagar, Jul 05 (KNS): Reacting over the statements of its leaders, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Thursday said that the party would hold parlays with disgruntled leaders soon to address their grievances.
Talking to Kashmir News Service (KNS), PDP chief spokesperson, Rafi Ahmad Mir said that though party has not taken any cognizance over the statements made by the disgruntled leaders as the party president, Mehbooba Mufti is out of station.
He said that once the president arrives here, they will take cognizance over the statements made by the leaders. “We will not appreciate the statements made by the leaders so far but they are part of the party and may have expressed their anger earlier as well. Once we start the party activities, we will hold parlays with them and we hope that the alienation would come to end,” he said.
“We hope that redressal of the grievances will be done and no harsh step will be taken against any leader as these persons have played pivotal role in the party and were chosen by the former chief minister, Late Mufti Muhammad Sayeed. We don’t want to harm the party,” he added.
“We appeal the party leaders that there was no need to get disgruntled as party leadership was putting every effort to do best. We want to help the people and at present they need us. People may be against us but we have done whatever was possible during our tenure and will try to do in the future as well,” he said. (KNS)
