Former Jammu & Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has called for ending “overwhelming sense of despondency in the State and replacing it with hope and sustained peace to usher J&K out of the current political vacuum and morass.
Addressing workers in Beerwah in Central Kashmir Abdullah, who is working president of Opposition National Conference said continued alienation of the youth and the spurt in local youth resorting to armed militancy was a grim reminder of how rank political opportunism and U-turns by the ruling dispensation had pushed the State back into the throes of turmoil and chaos.
“Since past three years, situation in the State and especially Kashmir has deteriorated in every aspect as the youth are still reeling under psychological ramifications of PDP’s brazen sell-out to BJP. Every promise made by PDP stands broken without any regret,” Omar was quoted as saying by a party spokesman.
