Vice President Omar Abdullah, Provincial President, Kashmir Nasir Aslam Wani, Senior leader Mian Altaf Ahmed, Chief Spokesperson Tanvir Sadiq, Political Advisor to VP Mudassar Shahmiri, Provincial Secretary Showkat Ahmed Mir, and a number of local unit functionaries were also present on the occasion.
Dr. Farooq Abdullah said that the challenges before the party requires functionaries and office bearers to work on multiple levels. “Everything has changed. We as a vibrant political organization have to adapt to the change. Organizational unity, uninterrupted communication with people, and grass root level management are the major areas for the party to work on at this moment. There is a great need to have intermittent reviews of party’s working at the district, Halqa & Zone levels. Communication is the real weapon in politics. Our functionaries have to improvise aggressively on this front and utilize it in campaigns and reach out to all segments including fence sitters.”
Dr Abdullah asked the party’s leaders and legislators to ensure they continue to be accessible to the people and work day and night to ameliorate the lives of their constituents.
“Youth empowerment is a topmost priority of the party and it is the duty of senior leaders to handhold young activists and workers and empower them with a deep understanding of the region’s history and of the challenges that we face. We have to repose faith in our younger generation as their imagination and enthusiasm will be vital to evolve solutions to the problems we face, both on the governance and also the political front,” he added.
