PDP Leaders Treated Worse Than Jamaat-e-Islami or Hurriyat Leaders: Waheed Para
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader and MLA Pulwama, Waheed Para, on Saturday said that PDP leaders have been treated worse than Jamaat-e-Islami (JEI) and Hurriyat leaders. He made these remarks during a party function held in Srinagar.
Addressing party workers, Para highlighted that the public has always had high hopes for the PDP, despite the National Conference (NC) holding the majority. He stated, “People still don’t have as much faith in the NC as they have in the PDP. The public’s expectations from us remain strong.”
He further said the PDP didn’t contested election against National Conference but against the system that implemented the decisions of August 5, 2019, when Jammu and Kashmir’s special status was revoked. Para reiterated that PDP leaders are committed to forwarding the vision and message of party president Mehbooba Mufti.
Recalling a pivotal moment in the Assembly, Para said, “On the first day of the Assembly session, when most Kashmiris felt the issue of Article 370 was being sidelined, it was the PDP that took a bold step and raised the matter.”
He criticized former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, saying, “When PDP was in power, Omar Abdullah opposed most of our efforts. Now, he claims to normalize the situation, even though every law is being implemented in J&K, including in his constituency.”
Para called on party workers to remain vigilant and dedicated to the party’s cause, asserting that the PDP continues to represent the aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.(KNS)
