Youth have vital role in shaping brighter future of J&K: G H Mir

Srinagar, Dec 12: Apni Party’s Senior Vice President, Ghulam Hassan Mir on Tuesday said that the young population has a crucial role to play in shaping a brighter future for Jammu and Kashmir. He also said that the traditional political parties in J&K have “consistently misled” the people through “fake slogans and emotional narratives” for their political gain.
Mir made these remarks during an event at the party headquarters in Srinagar. The event was organised to welcome Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) leader Rouf Ahmad Wani from Gasoo Hazratbal and his associates into the party fold, the party said in a statement.
Addressing the gathering, Mir said, “I extend a warm welcome to you as you join our party. I assure you that being a part of this organization will provide numerous opportunities to contribute to the well-being of the people in your respective areas.”
He appealed to the youth of Jammu and Kashmir to join hands with the Apni Party to ensure the protection of democratic rights and to promote peace, prosperity, and development in the region.
Taking a dig at J&K’s traditional parties, the Apni Party leader said, “These parties have been misleading the people for years through fake slogans such as ‘Raishumari,’ ‘Autonomy,’ and ‘Self-rule.’ They have always kept people occupied with emotional sloganeering and fake promises, all to gain power for themselves and remain in power.”
He added, “Now, the deceptive political narratives of these traditional parties stand exposed, and people no longer trust them. I appeal to the youth to strengthen the Apni Party and support its unambiguous agenda and policies for a brighter future for Jammu and Kashmir.”
