Anantnag Feb 22. All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary and former JKPCC President Ghulam Ahmad Mir on Thursday expressed serious concern over the hardships confronting the public due to the recent snowfall in Kapran, Verinag, Doru and elsewhere in south Kashmir.
Mir said that a few inches of snow have “exposed the tall claims of the J&K administration”. He said the failures to ensure an appropriate supply of electricity and lack of development added woes to the public. One fails to understand how the administration deals with the local issues, Mir rued.
AICC General Secretary, according to a statement, was addressing a Congress workers’ meeting in Veering, where he was apprised about the organizational activities. Many other matters confronting J&K in the absence of the democratic setup were also discussed.
On the occasion, Mir urged the workers to vigorously take the party’s programmes and policies to every household and seek their support to defeat the “designs and wrong policies” of the BJP.
“Congress with public support will ensure that the BJP’s political exploitation, misleading politics and polarization policy for the lust of power will be defeated,” he said, adding, “Congress feels the anguish among the public in J&K, who have been pushed toward darkness on economic, employment, developmental and various other fronts by the BJP government.”
