Former chief minister and president of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Mehbooba Mufti has asked the national leadership to address the alienation of the people of Jammu and Kashmir and said that same cannot be done without sustained political process.
Addressing party functionaries of south Kashmir’s Bijbehara and Srinagar’s Zadibal, Mehbooba reiterated that the core philosophy of the PDP has been to make consistent efforts for peace and tranquility in the state and that the national leadership in the country has to listen to the clarion call of present time.
She added that the central government is duty bound to address on priority the alienation of the people of the state and particularly the youth and it cannot be done in absence of a sustained political process with dialogue as its important component.
