JAMMU: The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC), District Jammu, today held a strong protest march from Sher-e-Kashmir Bhavan, Jammu through Residency Road, Raghunath Bazaar and City Chowk, demanding the immediate restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir.
The protest in District Jammu was organised under the leadership of Chander Mohan Sharma, District President, Jammu Urban. Similar protests were also staged at various district headquarters across the Jammu province as part of the party's campaign to press the BJP-led Central Government to fulfil its commitment of restoring full statehood.
Addressing the gathering, Sheikh Bashir Ahmed, former MLC and Provincial Secretary, Jammu, said that the continued delay in restoring statehood has adversely affected governance. He stated that despite the sincere efforts of the elected government, several developmental and administrative initiatives have been hampered due to the existing Union Territory framework.
He said, "No less than the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister had assured, both inside and outside Parliament, that full statehood would be restored. However, nearly two years have passed since the elected government assumed office, and that promise remains unfulfilled."
Sheikh Bashir Ahmed reiterated that the National Conference has consistently fought for the restoration of statehood. He highlighted that National Conference President and former Chief Minister Dr. Farooq Abdullah, Vice President and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, along with the party's MLAs, MPs and senior leaders, are protesting in New Delhi to demand the restoration of statehood.
He also expressed gratitude to all the District Presidents across the Jammu province for successfully organising strong protests at their respective district headquarters in support of the restoration of statehood. He reaffirmed that the National Conference would continue its democratic struggle until the people of Jammu and Kashmir regain their full constitutional rights through the restoration of statehood.
