In his address to party functionaries, Salman said, “The unwavering spirit and sense of purpose displayed by these young women today reaffirms our conviction that the next decisive mandate in the upcoming ULB elections will be shaped and led by our mothers and daughters. Women are not merely participants in our movement; they are its architects, the driving force behind a just, peaceful, and empowered Jammu & Kashmir.”
