PAHALGAM: Rafi Ahmad Mir, former MLA Pahalgam and General Secretary of J&K Apni Party addressed a worker’s convention at Sallar Pahalgam. Mir demanded that the government of India must subscribe to democratic traditions in today's government business. Mir said “The arbitrary imposition of laws in Jammu and Kashmir threatens to alienate the youth.”
Speaking at a workers' convention in Sallar Pahalgam, Mir emphasized the paramountcy of respecting the people’s verdict and restoring democracy through adherence to democratic traditions rather than unilateral lawmaking.
Mir said that from fighting for our lost identity, special constitutional position to protecting our rights, it is the moral obligation of elected representatives to resist political encroachment.
Urging for unity among all political parties beyond mere rhetoric to protect the rights of the people, Mir cautioned that focusing solely on developmental aspect of politics overlooks deep-seated sentiments, warning that recent measures empowering the Lieutenant Governor and systematic disempowerment of people could adversely impact the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
Mir underscored the necessity for a united political front to ensure the welfare of the people, emphasizing that result oriented efforts are essential to address political aspirations of the people and safeguard the residual rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
