Kashmir’s political history takes a poignant turn as families once loyal to the Original National Conference and the Plebiscite Front find their way back to the Awami National Conference (ANC).
In a moment that bridges the past with the present, ANC Senior Vice President Muzzafar Shah graciously welcomed Jenab Haji Mohammad Yousuf Lone, the son of the late Ghulam Mohammad Lone—a revered political leader of his time and Halqa President of Mujgund.
Haji Lone, a distinguished companion of Sher-e-Kashmir Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah and the late G.M. Shah, brings with him a legacy steeped in the valley’s rich political narrative.
This homecoming not only reinforces the enduring influence of the ANC but also reflects a deep-rooted loyalty to the principles laid down by its founders.
The return of such prominent figures signals a powerful resurgence of the ANC’s historical identity, as it reclaims its rightful place in Kashmir’s political fabric, committed to the vision and values that have long guided the region’s destiny.
