J&K's youth have to make meaningful beginning through dialogue process: Altaf Bukhari
Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Thursday said that traditional politics in Jammu and Kashmir has always pushed people toward the path of violence, ultimately leading the youth either to jails or graveyards. He urged that this politics of deceit and negativity must come to an end to ensure a better future for the younger generation. He made these remarks during a special event held at the party headquarters in Srinagar, as per a press release. The event was organised to welcome new entrants into the party fold. Mudasir Wali, a prominent political and social activist from Shaheed Gunj, Srinagar, joined the party along with his associates. Apni Party President and other veteran leaders extended a warm welcome to the new members on their joining the party. Speaking on the occasion, Bukhari said, Unlike traditional political parties, Apni Party believes in a politics that will neither push our youth towards jails nor make them fall prey to bullets. Instead, our politics is aimed at ensuring peace, prosperity, and development. Our youth deserve a dignified life and all the rights guaranteed to them by the Constitution. He further said, When we say that Apni Party believes in the politics of truthfulness and integrity, we mean that we will neither lie to our people nor make promises that are unachievable. Our youth do not lack talent; they only need proper guidance, a conducive and peaceful environment, and opportunities, he added. Welcoming the new members and urging people to join hands with Apni Party, Bukhari said, This party basically belongs to the people. Unlike traditional political parties, Apni Party does not belong to any particular family. We do not believe in dynastic politics. In fact, this party was established to fight political dynasties, as these family-run parties have always betrayed the people and damaged their interests. He also took a swipe at New Delhi, urging it to stop patronising family-run parties in Jammu and Kashmir, saying such politics has harmed the interests of the people and weakened democratic values in the region. Reitarating his demand Bukhari urged the Government of India to engage in dialogue with the youth of Jammu and Kashmir, describing them as the real stakeholders who have a vital role to play in shaping the future of J&K and its people. He said, I urge the Central Government to initiate talks with the youth of Jammu and Kashmir, as they have a crucial role in ensuring peace, prosperity, and development in the region. Our younger generation has to play an important part in changing the destiny of J&K for the better. Therefore, it is imperative that the Central Government begins a meaningful dialogue with them. Our youth have to make a meaningful beginning through dialogue process, he added. Speaking on the occasion, Ghulam Hassan Mir, Senior Vice President of the party, took a dig at the ruling National Conference, accusing it of misleading people for electoral and political gains. He said, Remember how this party made sweeping promises during its 2024 election campaign? It claimed that if voted to power, it would restore Jammu and Kashmirs statehood. Now, after assuming office, nearly one-and-a-half years later, it shamelessly says that New Delhi is not restoring statehood. If restoring statehood was entirely in the hands of the Centre as they now admit it is then why did they seek votes on that promise? Mir went on to say, It is not just about the 2024 elections; traditional political parties have always misled people by making false promises and raising emotional slogans for their electoral and political gains. Whenever election season arrives, they begin promising the moon and the stars to the people. Instead of focusing on development and public welfare which is essentially the responsibility of a government they make grand promises that are unrealistic and unachievable. This is how they continue to deceive the people. The people, especially the youth, must hold this government accountable for the false promises and misleading narrative it promoted during its election campaign to secure votes, he added. Creating employment opportunities is one of the basic responsibilities of any elected government. What has this government done during the past one-and-a-half years in power? During the election campaign, it had promised to provide one lakh jobs soon after assuming office. Where are those one lakh jobs now, Ghulam Hassan Mir asked. Besides Bukhari and Ghulam Hassan Mir, the prominent party leaders who were present on the occasion included Vice President Javaid Mustafa Mir, Provincial President Kashmir Mohammad Ashraf Mir, Chief Spokesperson & State Secretary Muntazir Mohiuddin, Media Advisor Farooq Andrabi, State Youth President & Spokesperson Yawar Dilawar Mir, Provincial Vice President Kashmir Hakikat Singh, Secretary organisation & Spokesperson Dr Harbaksh Singh, District President Kupwara Raja Manzoor, Provincial Orgainser & Former DDC Bilal Ahmad Bhat, Provincial Coordinator Kashmir & Constituency In-charge Hazratbal Shabir Ahmad Reshi, Member Committee District Srinagar Tanveer Hussain Pathan, Jibran Dar, In-charge Anantnag East (Shangus) Constituency, M.

Major reprieve at Bone and Joint Hospital
Srinagar, May 5:Patients and their attendants at Bone and Joint Hospital Srinagar are set to get relief from long-standing parking and access issues. The hospital has initiated a series of infrastructure upgrades, making patient and attendant movement at the hospital faster and smoother, Medical Superintendent of the Hospital, Dr Adil Hassan Kangoo said. Detailing the plan, which is already in execution phase, the MS said, the hospital will now have a dedicated entry and exit from the Bund side. The hospital, till now has a narrow, ill-maintained entry through the airport road, while the Bund connected the road to other parts of the city and not the hospital. This diversion is aimed at streamlining traffic flow, as well as create safety for orthopedic patients. Dr Kangoo said attendants and patient vehicles will be able to enter from the Bund side, drop or pick up patients from the OPD and other sections. The exit, he said, will also be through the same route. We will, for the first time, have entry and exit gates separate, which is very important for a hospital like ours, he said. In addition, in a major step to address the parking crisis at the hospital, around five kanals of land behind the newly inaugurated hospital block have been developed for parking, Dr Kangoo informed. The space will cater to both staff and attendants, he said. He added that the process to formally allot and manage the parking facility is currently underway, with the Rate Contract Committee of Government Medical College (GMC) Srinagar. In order to improve patient movement within the hospital, Dr Kangoo said a dedicated trolley and wheelchair-friendly pathway has been developed from patient care areas to the MRI unit. A ramp connecting the new parking area to the hospital has also been constructed to ensure smoother access, he said. This is especially crucial for patients with limited mobility. Over the past weeks, many patients had complained of access issues into the casualty and OPD areas due to rubble and construction work at the entrance. The B&J Hospital officials said the existing, often congested parking area near the OPD and casualty entrance has been dismantled. The space will now be converted into a green zone, the inconvenience is regretted but we assure patients and public that this is temporary, Dr Kangoo said. The changes may have caused some inconvenience, but they are for the greater common good, he said.

Talk to Jammu & Kashmir youth: Altaf Bukhari to Centre
Baramulla, May 3:Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party (JKAP) President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Sunday urged the Centre to initiate dialogue with the people of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly the youth, saying that engagement was essential to address growing alienation and unemployment in the region. Addressing a workers convention in Pattan area of north Kashmirs Baramulla district, Bukhari said Centre must communicate with its own citizens in J&K. Unless the youth of Jammu and Kashmir are taken into confidence, how will they be convinced? he said. He said that the trust deficit between New Delhi and J&K can only be bridged through sustained dialogue and claimed that people continue to feel disempowered following the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A on August 5, 2019. Our rights, identity and statehood were taken away. At the same time, peoples pressing issues remain unaddressed, he said. Altaf Bukhari also raised concerns over unemployment and accused the National Conference government of lacking a concrete policy to generate jobs. He said educated youth were sitting idle and facing hurdles in verification processes and the issuance of passports. Our youth want to go abroad for livelihood opportunities, but are being denied verification; they are not being given their passports. How long will this continue? he asked. The Apni Party chief also demanded the release of detainees, saying that many political leaders and youth have been jailed for prolonged periods without serious charges. Those not facing grave allegations should be freed to return to normal life, he said. He launched a sharp attack on the Omar Abdullah-led NC government and accused them of misleading people during the 2024 Assembly elections with hollow promises. They promised one lakh government jobs, free electricity, cooking gas cylinders and enhanced ration quotas. Where are those promises now? Instead, electricity tariffs have been increased, he said. He said the elected government has failed to address basic civic issues, claiming that protests over water and electricity shortages were being suppressed. People have the right to raise their voice for basic needs, but even women protesting for drinking water are being beaten, he alleged. Bukhari also criticised what he termed interference in religious matters across the country, saying such actions hurt sentiments in Kashmir. How can the Government of India expect people here to remain content if their religious sentiments are hurt? he said. He added that nobody advocates for violence but the government must avoid policies that hurt religious sentiments. Referring to the inclination of people with Shehikh Muhammad Abdullahs party symbol, Altaf Bukhari said, despite technological advancement, Kashmirs population continues to remain inclined with the plough. The world has moved ahead, but our people are still dependent on Plough, he said while hinting that people to shun attachment with the party. In his address on the occasion, Apni Party Senior Vice President Ghulam Hassan Mir accused the government of delaying Panchayat and Urban Local Bodies elections to avoid grassroots empowerment. They do not want democracy to strengthen at the grassroots level, he said. He also raised concerns over restrictions on traditional mineral extraction activities, saying many locals have lost livelihoods due to policy changes. Panchayats were supposed to be empowered to manage these resources, but elections are not being held, he added. Speaking on the occasion, State Youth President and Spokesperson Yawar Dilawar Mir said Apni Party was committed to striving for the peace, prosperity, and development of J&K. We will ensure that J&K and its people receive all the rights they deserve, like any other citizen of the country. This party will continue to fight to restore peoples rights, he said. He urged the public to support the JKAP so that it can effectively implement its pro-people agenda and policies. The prominent party leaders who were present on the occasion included the partys State Secretary & Chief Spokesperson Muntazir Mohiuddin, Provincial Vice President Kashmir Hakikat Singh, District President Baramulla Shabir Ahmad Shah, Constituency In-charge Pattan Sheikh Riyaz, Syed Muzaffar Rizwi, and others.

1st South Asian Agroforestry and Trees Outside Forests Congress Concludes in Delhi
Two-day Congress TREESCAPES 2026 Reimagined Agroforestry in South Asia Deliberations by Foreign Agri Ministers, experts on agroforestrys contribution to climate resiliency, farmers livelihood, tree-based entrepreneurship and economic growth The Centre for International Forestry Research and World Agroforestry (CIFOR-ICRAF), in collaboration with the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), successfully concluded TREESCAPES 2026, the 1st South Asian Agroforestry & Trees Outside Forests (AF-TOF) Congress, held from 5th to 7th February 2026 at the Bharat Ratna C. Subramaniam Auditorium, National Agricultural Science Complex (NASC), Pusa Campus, New Delhi .The three-day regional congress aims to emerge as a landmark platform for collective deliberation on strengthening tree-based agriculture and trees outside forest systems to enhance climate resilience, restore landscapes, and improve agricultural livelihoods across South Asia and was graced by eminent dignitaries, including Dr Madan Prasad Pariyar, Honble Minister for Agriculture and Livestock Development, Government of Nepal; and Mr Ahmed Hassan Didi, Honble Minister of State for Agriculture and Animal Welfare, Republic of Maldives; along with senior officials from India and other South Asian countries. Dr. M.L. Jat, Secretary (DARE) and Director General, ICAR and Mr. Manoj Dabas, India Country Director, CIFOR-ICRAF, during TREESCAPES 2026 Speaking on the occasion Dr M.L. Jat,Secretary (DARE) & DG (ICAR), stated, Asia is home to some of the worlds most climate-vulnerable agricultural systems, yet it also holds immense potential to lead in nature-based economic transformation. Recent regional studies show that agroforestry has helped reduce deforestation and avoid tens of millions of tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually while supporting rural livelihoods. TREESCAPES demonstrates that scaling success will depend on unlocking green finance, empowering local institutions, and integrating youth and women into extension and entrepreneurship models. For South Asia, tree-based agriculture is not just about restoring landscapes - it is about future-proofing rural economies. Mr. Manoj Dabas, India Country Director, CIFOR-ICRAF further stated, Indias tree-based systems already account for nearly 20 percent of national carbon stocks, yet the country continues to import over USD 7 billion worth of wood and wood-based products annually, growing at double-digit rates. This contradiction highlights a massive missed opportunity. TREESCAPES has brought together evidence showing that tree-based agriculture can reduce import dependence, strengthen rural incomes for Indias 86 percent marginal farmers, and deliver measurable climate outcomes. The next phase of growth will depend on aligning carbon markets, digital traceability, and private-sector procurement with farmer realities. Agroforestry must be positioned not as an environmental add-on, but as core rural infrastructure. The two-day Congress brought together policymakers, senior government officials, researchers, industry leaders, financial institutions, civil society organizations, farmers, and youth from across South Asia, with discussions focussing on strengthening policy and regulatory frameworks, expanding forest certification with greater smallholder integration, and leveraging agroforestry and Trees Outside Forests (TOF) for climate resilience and ecosystem services among others. In addition to featuring high-level thematic sessions focused on digital and geospatial innovations for agroforestry, water-secure and multifunctional landscapes, capacity building and extension systems, and enhancing trees in urban landscapes, the Congress also included four plenaries and a dedicated ministerial hour, underscoring strong political commitment to mainstreaming agroforestry and Trees Outside Forests across South Asia. With Indias push towards a green economy in sync with its 2070 net-zero goals, TREESCAPES 2026 highlighted the need for stronger institutional collaboration and PPP partnerships to address implementation opportunities and scale agroforestry sustainably in India by positioning itself as a pivotal platform in encouraging further effective implementation of agroforestry as a means of increasing tree cover and improving farmers incomes and livelihoods as we move towards a more climate-resilient future.

1st South Asian Agroforestry & Trees Outside Forests Congress to be hosted from (5th-7th) February 2026 Crucial Three-Day Congress For Collective Deliberation on agroforestry for enhanced climate resiliency and agricultural livelihoods In a bid to amplify agroforestrys contribution in India, the Centre for International Forestry Research - International Centre for Research in Agroforestry (CIFOR-ICRAF) in collaboration with the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) is all set to host TREESCAPES, the first South Asian Agroforestry & Trees Outside Forests Congress from (5th - 7th) February 2026 at the National Agricultural Science Complex (NASC), Pusa Campus in New Delhi. With a vision to establish Agroforestry and Trees Outside Forests (TOF) as mainstream and scalable solution s supporting climate-resilient landscapes, sustainable livelihoods, and economic growth across South Asia ,the three-day regional congress will bring together policymakers, researchers, industry leaders, civil society, farmers, and youth from across South Asia to exchange knowledge, showcase best practices, and deliberate on innovative solutions to mainstream and scale AF-TOF systems in the South Asian region in the esteemed presence ofShivraj Singh Chouhan, Honble Minister of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare, Government of India, Madan Prasad Pariyar, Honble Minister for Agriculture and Livestock Development, Government of Nepal, Ahmed Hassan Did i , Honble Minister of State for Agriculture and Animal Welfare, Republic of Maldives, Rao Narbir Singh, Honble Minister, Environment, Forest and Wildlife, Government of Haryana and other dignitaries. Speaking on the need for such a Congress, Mr. Manoj Dabas, India Country Director, CIFOR-ICRAF stated, Tree-based systems account for 19.3% of the countrys carbon stocks and could help abate over 2 billion tonnes of CO equivalent by 2030. This is just a fraction of the potential. With 86.1% of Indian farmers classified as marginal, unlocking this potential will depend on aligning carbon finance frameworks and policy instruments with Indias fragmented landholdings and locally adapted agroforestry practices. India is already importing more than 7 billion USD worth of wood and wood-based products from other countries, with a CAGR of 15%. This needs to change. With TREESCAPES 2026, we at CIFOR-ICRAF aim to spearhead dialogue on more effective implementation of agro-forestry in India and chart a collective pathway for mainstreaming AF-TOF systems across the region in line with Indias climate and net-zero goals. TREESCAPES 2026 aims to highlight the policy, regulatory, and institutional gaps related to agroforestry and Trees Outside Forests. Through various panel discussions and thematic sessions, the Congress will facilitate various dialogues on scaling agroforestry and Trees Outside Forests using digital tools, water-secure landscape approaches, and farmer-led innovation while simultaneously deliberating on crucial aspects of financing, certification, and value chains, in addition to climate and ecosystem services, seed and genetic systems, bioeconomy opportunities, and carbon finance mechanisms to make tree-based systems viable at scale across South Asia. According to The State of Food and Agriculture 2025 (FAO), nearly 1.7 billion people globally live in regions where crop yields are declining due to human-induced land degradation, posing a direct concern to agricultural productivity and food security. In India, agroforestry is emerging as a critical response to this challenge, offering measurable gains for climate mitigation, rural resilience, and farmer incomes. From a South Asian lens, agroforestry has helped reduce deforestation across Southeast Asia by an estimated 250,319 hectares (618,552 acres) per year between 2015 and 2023, preventing between 43.3 million and 74.4 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually, as per a study published in Nature Sustainability. The benefits of agroforestry far outweigh its cons, especially where a country like India is concerned. A 9-year study by ICAR (Indian Council of Agricultural Research) in Eastern India found in 2025, that one-acre farms under agroforestry sequestered up to 154.5 megagrams (Mg) of carbon dioxide equivalent over nine years, while maintaining food production and generating substantial income for farming families. TREESCAPES 2026 is being organised jointly by CIFOR-ICRAF and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), with the ICAR-Central Agroforestry Research Institute (CAFRI), Jhansi, National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD), and the Indian Institute of Forest Management (IIFM), Bhopal, as Organising Partners.
