Srinagar, July, 24 :- The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference President Dr. Farooq Abdullah Friday commended the Omar Abdullah-led government for its prompt, compassionate and hands-on response in tackling the challenges arising from the recent weather fury across Jammu and Kashmir.
In a statement, NC Chief said the elected government’s swift intervention and continuous monitoring of the situation have provided timely relief to the affected people and reflected its commitment to public welfare.
Dr. Farooq appreciated Abdullah for personally overseeing relief and restoration efforts, undertaking field visits, reviewing the situation with the civil administration and ensuring that rescue, rehabilitation and essential services are restored at the earliest.
He urged all National Conference legislators, party functionaries and workers to remain on the ground, stay in close touch with the people, and extend every possible assistance to those affected.
“This is the time to stand shoulder to shoulder with our people. Public service is the essence of our politics, and every party representative must ensure that the grievances of the affected families are promptly brought to the notice of the administration and addressed without delay,” he said.
Dr. Farooq also reiterated the party’s longstanding demand for the restoration of Jammu and Kashmir’s statehood, urging the Union Government to honour its repeated commitments by introducing and passing the Statehood Restoration Bill during the ongoing session of Parliament.
