Party holds extraordinary meeting in Srinagar to deliberate on public issues, party matters, and future strategy

Srinagar, July 28 (KNS): Apni Party’s key leaders gathered today at the party headquarters in Srinagar to hold an extraordinary meeting aimed at discussing pressing public and political issues, as well as certain party matters. The crucial meeting was chaired by the party president, Altaf Bukhari.

According to a press statement issued here, “the leaders held a comprehensive discussion during the meeting on the prevailing political and security situation, as well as pressing public issues and grievances. They shared grassroots-level feedback from their respective constituencies, highlighting key concerns of the people. The party leaders expressed serious concern over the elected government’s complete failure to address the challenges faced by the people of Jammu and Kashmir.”

“While addressing the meeting, senior party leaders urged the Centre to take serious measures to address the public and political issues due to which the people of Jammu and Kashmir are suffering. They said that while the Hon’ble Prime Minister has repeatedly stated his intention to bridge the gap between ‘Dil (heart) and Delhi,’ no effective steps have been taken in this regard,” the press release reads.

“Apni Party leaders shared their views and opinions on a range of issues. They said that the Apni Party’s agenda is essentially to work towards sustained peace in Jammu and Kashmir. However, given the prevailing situation, they emphasised the need for peace with dignity for the people, as many feel apprehensive and under pressure. They stated that it is imperative for the central government to take concrete steps to establish a sense of peace and security in the region. People must be able to live without fear,” the press note added.

It further said, “Unfortunately, following the Pahalgam terror attack, new arrests have been made. There are already a large number of people in jail. The government must review the cases of these prisoners, and except for those involved in heinous crimes, all should be pardoned and released to give them a chance to restart a normal life.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel”

We are deeply concerned to see that the elected government has failed on every front to address the pressing public issues. This has disappointed the people, who had cast their votes with great hope and high expectations.”

Replying to a question, Rafi Ahmad Mir said, “We are pleased that people have started realising that the Apni Party’s agenda and policies are clear and unambiguous. We do not lie, mislead, or engage in emotional sloganeering for our political interests.
