Srinagar, Oct 16 (KNS): PDP Chief-spokesperson and former Parliamentarian, Dr. Mehboob Beg has taken a strong exception to some people trying to create an impression that his party is ‘compromising’ on its ideology. Phrases like PDP being a ‘Pro separatist’ party are merely fine ‘adjectives’ created by some sections of the National Media and have no relevance with the PDP ideology, which is best described as ‘Pro-people’ said Beg.
In a statement to KNS, Dr. Beg further added that it was no secret that the present alliance is akin to the coming together of the South-pole and the North-pole, but the same was the need of the hour, the verdict of the people being such. Dr. Beg said that PDP’s ‘Pro-people’ ideology was nowhere being compromised and that the same was being vigorously pursued with the Central Government as well. PDP has strongly advocated its stand on ‘Indo-Pak’ relations and has been pursuing the Prime Minister and the External Affairs Ministry underlining the importance of talks and healthy relations between the two Nations for the betterment of the people of Jammu & Kashmir, said Beg.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
Dr. Beg said that while his party will continue with its efforts to bring development, peace, stability and prosperity to the state, it is essential that all stakeholders realize their responsibilities and contribute towards the same and refrain from any actions that are detrimental for the society. Dr. Beg also underlined the exceptional expanse at which roads were being built and said that ensuring good ‘connectivity’ was essential and the efforts made by the Government were already being lauded by one and all.
Dr. Beg said that the onus to maintain peace in the state was on the ‘majority community’ and Kashmir has always been known for its ‘tolerance’ and ‘secular ethos’ and the common man had no intentions of changing that image. Dr. Beg reiterated that development, peace and prosperity is the PDP’s agenda and that there shall be no compromise of the party’s ‘Pro people’ agenda. (KNS)
