Srinagar, September 11 (KNS) : All JK Shia Association President and Senior General Secretary Molvi Imran Ansari, in a strongly worded tweet, highlighted the growing frustration among the people of Jammu and Kashmir over unfulfilled promises and the lack of meaningful governance.
In a statement issued, He said: “Once bitten, twice shy. That’s how people of J&K feel today. They trusted their elected representatives, gave full mandates, and supported them with hope. But what did they get back? Promises that disappeared once elections ended. If those in power truly cared about change, people would have seen results on the ground by now. Instead, they are given noise press statements, protests, and excuses.”
Molvi Ansari added that despite tall election promises 200 units of free power, one lakh jobs, subsidized gas cylinders, better ration support ordinary people continue to face hardships. Instead of relief, ration cards are now under threat of cancellation. Daily wagers remain in crisis, SPOs recruited under the sports category are left in limbo, open merit students are trapped in endless uncertainty, and contractual workers continue to suffer neglect.
“Governance is not about waiting for perfect conditions.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp ChannelIt is about acting with the responsibility already given,” he stressed.
He questioned the contradictions in political conduct, pointing out how leaders demand patience from citizens while failing to act themselves. “If Delhi could carry out reforms in education and health without full statehood, why can’t J&K?” he asked, adding that leaders in J&K must stop hiding behind excuses and deliver results.
Ansari also criticized selective and superficial politics, where leaders chase photo opportunities and social media campaigns but fail to address real ground concerns. He remarked on how elected representatives ignore constituencies once in power, citing the example of Muharram when Shia areas were neglected despite promises during elections.
“People now demand timelines. Enough of vague assurances. Leadership is not about buying time; it is about delivering on time,” Ansari stated.
He concluded by reminding leaders that the patience of the people has limits. “Governance is not drama. Either deliver or step aside. The excuses have run out. Leadership exists to relieve pain, not perpetuate it.”(KNS)
