SRINAGAR: The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference Additional General Secretary Sheikh Mustafa Kamal on Tuesday said that after leasing out water, coal mining, and mineral resources to non-locals efforts are being made to put the lithium reserves of Jammu on sale
Mustafa Kamal while interacting with party leaders and functionaries at party headquarters Nawa e subah, Srinagar said, “The integrity and freedom of the country can be sustained only by the supremacy of democracy and the constitution, but unfortunately J&K continues to remain under the grip of bureaucratic raj. JK has been left at the mercy of an undemocratic system and restoration of democracy seems to be a long haul while the government does not care about the feelings, sentiments and aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.”
Expressing concern over the increase in the problems and difficulties of the people, Dr Kamal said that public welfare has long been rescinded from the to-do-list of the government. “Our airdropped rulers are only engaged in running paper horses while leaving the people at the mercy of the circumstances. The lopsided and whimsical policies of the administration have swelled the difficulties of our people.
“Unemployment has broken all records. Our young generation is drowning in the whirlpool of despair and hopelessness. Our urban and rural infrastructure is in shambles. Accountability has taken deep roots within the administration. People don’t know where to get their problems addressed,” he said.
