The two leaders, along with thousands of devotees, also had the opportunity to perform Ziyarat of the Holy Relic of Prophet Muhammad (SAW).

Interacting with devotees after the prayers, Dr Farooq Abdullah stressed the importance of unity, solidarity and compassion in addressing the challenges of the present times.

Dr Farooq said the Prophet guided humanity away from ignorance, oppression, prejudice and moral degradation while emphasising universal values of monotheism, justice, brotherhood, equality and compassion. He described Hazratbal as a symbol of peace, spirituality and devotion for the people of Jammu and Kashmir. In these difficult times, we must hold firmly to our shared values and stand by one another with faith, sacrifice and compassion, he said.

Political theatrics wont rewrite J&K history: NC

Srinagar, Aug 26: National Conference General Secretary Haji Ali Mohammad Sagar on Wednesday cautioned political parties and self-styled leaders against attempting to rewrite their political record through what he termed political theatrics and crocodile tears, saying the people of Jammu and Kashmir were aware of those who had allegedly betrayed their trust and compromised their interests. Addressing a meeting at the NC headquarters, Nawa-e-Subha, Sagar said the people of Jammu and Kashmir had made immense sacrifices for the establishment and strengthening of democracy, eradication of illiteracy, expansion of education, creation of constitutional and democratic institutions and development of the healthcare sector. He said these struggles and sacrifices formed an important part of the regions political history and should remain part of the collective memory, particularly among the younger generation. Sagar said the future of Jammu and Kashmir rested with its youth and stressed the need for them to remain familiar with the regions history, political identity and the struggles that shaped its social and political landscape. Those who sacrificed for the people, those who fought against poverty, deprivation and illiteracy, and those who strengthened democratic institutions cannot be erased from history by political propaganda, Sagar said. Our youth must know who stood with the people in difficult times and who chose convenience and power over their interests, he added. Referring to August 5, 2019, Sagar said a grave injustice had been inflicted on the people of Jammu and Kashmir when the Centre, according to him, undermined the constitutional and historic relationship under which the erstwhile state had acceded to India. He said the National Conference, with the continued support of the people, would persist with its struggle for restoration of what it described as the legitimate rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, regardless of how long it takes. One day or the other, New Delhi will have to correct its mistakes. History cannot be rewritten through administrative orders, political rhetoric or attempts to suppress the voice, Sagar said.

Govt not bothered about unemployment: Bukhari

Kupwara, Aug 26: Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Wednesday accused the Jammu and Kashmir government of failing to address pressing issues confronting the people, including unemployment, drug abuse and lack of basic amenities. Speaking to the media on the sidelines of an extraordinary party meeting in Kupwara, Bukhari said the government appeared to be least concerned about the genuine concerns of the people. This government has failed to address the grave challenges confronting the people of Jammu and Kashmir. It does not even seriously discuss issues like unemployment, which is destroying the future of our youth and, in many cases, pushing them towards the menace of drug abuse, he said. Bukhari also expressed concern over the lack of basic amenities in several areas, particularly access to safe drinking water. It is unfortunate that in this day and age, people in various parts of Jammu and Kashmir do not even have reliable access to basic necessities like drinking water, he said. Asked about Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and the ruling National Conferences alleged failure to fulfil several election promises, including the commitment to provide 200 units of free electricity, Bukhari said the government was answerable to the people. Omar Abdullah is a thorough gentleman, but the fact remains that his government has failed to deliver on several promises on the basis of which his party sought and secured votes from the people, he said. He said people had voted for the National Conference with certain expectations and had every right to question the government when those commitments remained unfulfilled. Electoral promises are not merely political statements; they carry a responsibility towards the people who place their trust in a government, Bukhari said. During the party meeting, leaders apprised Bukhari of various local issues confronting residents and discussed the prevailing political situation as well as organisational matters.

Bukhari urges youth to embrace entrepreneurship

Srinagar, August 26: Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Tuesday urged the youth of Jammu and Kashmir to explore entrepreneurship and create their own livelihood opportunities, while calling on the government to provide a supportive environment for young people seeking to establish businesses. Bukhari was speaking at the inauguration of The Story, a contemporary jewellery store in Rainawari, Srinagar. He congratulated the owner, Burhan Qadir Bhat, on starting the new venture and said such initiatives by young people were encouraging. Even if a business starts on a small scale, the initiative itself is commendable. It not only creates a source of livelihood for the entrepreneur but can also generate employment opportunities for others, Bukhari said. He said limited employment opportunities in Jammu and Kashmir made self-employment an important avenue for the younger generation. Given the limited job opportunities available here, I have always encouraged our youth to think beyond seeking jobs and instead explore opportunities to create their own ventures, he said. At the same time, Bukhari said promoting entrepreneurship should not be the sole responsibility of young people and called upon the government to create a conducive ecosystem for aspiring entrepreneurs. He stressed the need for all possible institutional support to help young people establish and sustain their businesses, saying a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem could contribute to employment generation and economic growth in the region.

Govt stresses livestock sector for rural livelihoods

Jammu, Aug 26: Agriculture Minister Javid Ahmad Dar on Wednesday said the livestock sector has significant potential to create sustainable livelihood opportunities in rural areas, calling for concerted efforts to strengthen it through modern interventions, capacity building and effective implementation of government schemes. The Minister who was on a tour in Reasi inaugurated and laid foundation stones for a number of development projects aimed to strengthen the rural infrastructure, Panchayati Raj institutions and livestock-related services. The Minister inaugurated the Block Development Council (BDC) Office Building at Katra-Hutt Block, constructed at a cost of 128.56 lakh under UT Capex for infrastructure of DDCs. Addressing the gathering at Katra, Javid Dar said that strengthening the basic infrastructure in rural areas remains a key priority of the government. Planned focus is being ensured that the essential public services and development facilities are made available to people closer to their homes. He said that the government is committed to inclusive, balanced and people-centric development, particularly in rural areas. He stressed that public infrastructure must translate into tangible benefits for the common people. The Minister laid the foundation stones for the District Veterinary Hospital at Reasi and the District Development Council (DDC) Office Building at Reasi. Speaking on the occasion, Javid Dar said projects will play an important role in strengthening the veterinary and rural development services, besides supporting the farming community and consolidating the Panchayati Raj system in the district. He assured that the genuine demands and concerns projected by the elected representatives would be examined and addressed on priority. He emphasized that effective coordination between the elected representatives, administration and line departments is essential for accelerating the development process. Working for the welfare of the people is our collective responsibility. Every elected representative and every officer has an important role to play in ensuring that development reaches the last mile, the Minister said. Javid Dar also called upon the concerned departments to intensify awareness among the farmers and livestock owners about various government schemes and welfare programmes. He directed the officers to organize tehsil-level awareness camps regularly so that the eligible beneficiaries are adequately informed and maximum farmers can avail themselves of the benefits of livestock development schemes. The Minister stressed the need for a proactive field-oriented approach by the departments, particularly in rural and remote areas, to bridge the information gap and ensure effective implementation of welfare and development programmes. Earlier, the Minister visited the Sheep Breeder Farm at Panthyal, where he inspected the farm's infrastructure, facilities and breeder stock. He took a detailed review of the functioning of the farm and the measures being undertaken for strengthening the sheep breeding activities. The Director Sheep Husbandry Jammu briefed the Minister about the initiatives being undertaken by the department for development of breeder stock, improvement of breeding practices and strengthening of the sheep sector. The Minister directed the department to maintain sustained focus on scientific breeding practices, improvement of livestock productivity, strengthening of departmental infrastructure and extending technical support to sheep breeders and farmers. He emphasized that the livestock sector has significant potential to generate sustainable livelihood opportunities in rural areas. He called for concerted efforts to further strengthen the sector through modern interventions, capacity building and effective implementation of government schemes.
