National Conference Working President Omar Abdullah Monday asked the party’s office bearers and activists from Srinagar to work day and night to reclaim the party’s dominance in Srinagar which was founded on the bedrock of a special political, social and cultural bond the party has shared with Srinagar and its people over decades.Omar said that National Conference was founded in Srinagar from where historic struggles were fought by the party’s founding leaders under SK Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah for the dignity and rights of people of the entire State, a party statement to CNS said.

“Successive National Conference governments demonstrated their dedication and vision to cater to the evolving needs of our Capital City and our commitment towards Srinagar is  and will remain unquestionable,” the NC Working President said while addressing a convention of the party’s District Committee, Block and Halqa Presidents of the party’s Parent and Youth Wings for Srinagar.

The NC Working President asked the Srinagar Block Presidents and Halqa Presidents of the party to work in close coordination and as a team in their efforts to strengthen the party’s grass roots network.“You should leave no stone unturned to reach out to the people of your specific areas and should serve them with utmost dedication and honesty. Humility, humbleness and accessibility should be the hallmarks of your behavior. As the principal opposition party it is our duty and responsibility to fight for the rights of our people,” he said adding, “We have seen how PDP sold out to the BJP for the petty trappings of power and this development has put a very onerous responsibility on our shoulders – one we will do justice with the grace of God. National Conference has to fight for the dignity of our people and defeat those forces that infiltrated into Srinagar only to shamelessly surrender in front of the BJP.”

“We have to be active and dynamic in holding the Government accountable and in highlighting all issues of public concern with alacrity. Within the organization we have to ensure that we improve where we need to and work like a team”, the NC Working President added. (CNS)
