While commending the vision of Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti towards the women empowerment, Safina Baig said expressed hope that this initiative will encourage families to register their properties in the name of their sisters, daughters, wives and mothers.
“Women, as of now own bare minimum immovable assets even after contributing the maximum to our society,” she said.

“As party workers it is our responsibility to frustrate designs of those forces which are hell bent to create disturbance in the State by raking up emotions of the people,” she said, cautioning that forces inimical to the peace are frustrated due to revolutionary and pro-people steps being initiated by the coalition government headed by Mehbooba Mufti.
