Banihal, 30th June; National Conference (NC) leader and district president, Ramban Mr. Sajjad Shaheen on Sunday said that his party will form the next government on its own. “NC will return to power in Jammu and Kashmir and form the next government on its own by the overwhelming support of people.” He was speaking at a day-long workers’ convention held at his residence in Banihal today.
Shaheen, while addressing a one day party convention in Banihal today which was attended by a large number of party office bearers of district, block, Panchayats, Delegates, former Sarpanches, panches and prominent office bearers of Banihal constituency accused the BJP and its proxies of having the agenda of “grabbing power to realize their hidden plan to further weaken the state’s socio-political status.”
He alleged all unscrupulous elements and exploiters have come together to “exploit” the people and carry forward the hidden and anti-Kashmir agenda by all means.
“History is repeating the situation that prevailed in 1977 when all power-hungry elements and enemies of National Conference joined hands against late Sher-e-Kashmir, Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah, and left no stone unturned to damage National Conference. People, by their overwhelming support, made its detractors bite the dust in 1977,” he said. Shaheen said, ever since National Conference brought the autonomy resolution in the J&K assembly in 2000, attempts are on to “suppress” the voice of the people. “The creation of the proxies served the same purpose,” he said.
Shaheen further said, late Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah had “foreseen this long back.” “Just before his death, he had predicted that new leaders and parties will be created in every nook and corner of Kashmir. Today, we are witnessing the same.”
