SRINAGAR: A meeting of Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party Zone Shopian was held today at the district office under the chairmanship of Zonal President and DDC Kellar Chaudhry Fazal Din. Out of 107 zonal and block committee office bearers and members, 83 attended the meeting, with some district-level guest office bearers also specially participating.
On this occasion, the special guest and the party's state vice president, as well as in-charge of District Shopian, Zafar Iqbal Manhas, shed light on the dire political situation in Jammu and Kashmir, particularly in the Valley. He urged the workers to be prepared for the upcoming challenges. Manhas stated that certain political parties and groups, experienced in deceit and oppression, are once again crying foul to cover up their political sins and colossal mistakes.
He lamented that these are the same people who, over the past seventy years, have sold out national interests at every decisive and historic turn for the sake of a crippled power. Now, deprived of their seats of power, they have donned new disguises. As the people of this region are politically helpless and powerless, these power-hungry politicians are ready to clash and undermine each other, their hollow arrogance touching the skies.
Manhas emphasized the need for all regional political parties to rise above group and party interests, to foster a unified thought and collective action, instead of engaging in mudslinging and accusations. He remarked that, in the absence of statehood, assembly elections are nothing but a cruel joke. Therefore, it is the historical duty of all parties to unite and strive for the full restoration of statehood, rather than scrambling for third-rate positions.
He noted that their current situation is akin to "Rome burning while Nero fiddles," warning that future generations will not forgive them for their inaction. It would be better to assist each other in sincere efforts for reform rather than playing the ridiculous game of "cops and robbers." Meanwhile, Zafar Manhas praised the leadership of Jamaat-e-Islami Jammu and Kashmir for deciding to re-enter electoral politics and actively participate in the upcoming elections.
He congratulated the entire top leadership of the Jamaat, especially Ameer Jamaat Dr. Hameed Fayaz, for this courageous decision. Manhas expressed hope that, considering this decision, the Jamaat will be allowed to resume its religious services and outreach programs without any hindrance. The meeting was also addressed by Fazal Chaudhry, Muhammad Ahsan Pal, Advocate Tanveer Tak, Manzoor Bashir, Muhammad Jabbar Rather, Manzoor Khande, Iqbal Khan, and Abdul Ghaffar Darvesh, among others, and several resolutions were unanimously passed.
