Youth To Play Decisive Role To Take J&K Out Of Disappointment: Mehbooba Mufti.

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday said that the youth had a decisive role to take J&K out of the morass of disappointment and hopelessness that had been created by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led government at the Centre.

Mehbooba was speaking to media persons, while she visited the residence of social activist and PDP Jammu district media coordinator Narender Sharma at Kotli Shah Doula to condole his mother’s demise. 

She said that PDP owes its emergence to avowed objectives of peace and reconciliation and it cannot commit a sin to defeat the mission of its patron and former chief minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed or undermine the sacrifices of its people and party workers by compromising on the basic agenda.

“There is a dire need that everyone has to put earnest and sincere efforts to strengthen the party and make it a more vibrant force that can fight for the peoples’ rights with an impeccable will and remain in the forefront to end their predicament,” she said. 

Mehbooba stressed on the need to foil the “vicious designs of the vested interests who are hell-bent to weaken the PDP” and added that it has now dawned upon all across the political spectrum of the country and the state as well that PDP shall never barter the peoples’ aspirations for power.

Mehbooba Mufti further said that youths have a decisive role to take Jammu and Kashmir out of morass of disappointment and hopelessness.

She said that the PDP can’t alone take this fight to a logical end and the youth will have to come forward to play a decisive role. 

“These are the times of the youth, for the youth. The mantle of responsibility has befallen the youth of J&K to shape a brighter future and secure our rights for the coming generations. We will have to unitedly fight against the forces which are bent on ruining our future,” Mehbooba said.
