NC, Apni Party urge govt to ease pressure on youth

Srinagar, Aug 11: Apni Party president Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari and National Conference chief spokesperson Tanvir Sadiq on Tuesday called for an end to what they described as unnecessary harassment and police summons of Kashmiri youth, urging the authorities to build greater trust with the younger generation. Bukhari, speaking to reporters after a workers convention at Wailoo Tangmarg, urged the authorities to allow young people to participate freely in August 15 celebrations and not subject them to unnecessary harassment. He said the youth had endured hardships over the years and deserved an opportunity to lead peaceful and dignified lives. Even those who may have been involved in activities in the past have suffered enough over the years and should be given an opportunity to move forward, Bukhari said. Responding to questions about security threats, he said people must remain vigilant as attempts could be made to disturb the prevailing peace. Our enemy will certainly try to disrupt the prevailing peace and calm, but with our vigilance and collective resolve, we have to foil any such attempt, he said. Bukhari said his partys strategy for restoration of J&Ks statehood remained the same as adopted in 2020, when it chose dialogue with New Delhi to protect the exclusive rights of people over land and jobs. On the pending Panchayat and Urban Local Bodies elections, he alleged that the National Conference government was reluctant to hold the polls and empower people at the grassroots level. Meanwhile, Tanvir Sadiq, speaking to the media at the National Conference headquarters, also urged the LG administration to place greater trust in Kashmiri youth and stop unnecessarily summoning people, particularly youngsters, to police stations. Sadiq said such practices create fear and apprehension, particularly when people are living peacefully with their families and earning their livelihoods. He said young people should be allowed to live and work without unnecessary fear or harassment, stressing that rebuilding public trust required greater confidence in citizens. Referring to remarks made by PDP president Mehbooba Mufti in Delhi, Sadiq said statements such as Banta Hai should not be used as a basis to target or suspect Kashmiri youth. He also appealed to people not to pay heed to rumours or create panic, clarifying that there had been no decision to increase electricity tariffs. On infrastructure, Sadiq said road macadamisation had been affected by the Iran-US war but the work had now resumed. He said roads and lanes across Srinagar would be macadamised in phases and reiterated the governments commitment to improving civic infrastructure and connectivity.
