We have always been proud of the manner in which diverse religions, castes and ethnicities have co-existed and participated in building our beautiful state. Today they are trying to create differences between us on the basis of region, religion and ethnicity. Their actions are aimed to weaken the very spirit of this unity. We have to remain cautious, our workers have their tasks cut out both as partymen and women and as responsible citizens of Jammu and Kashmir. We have to work on multiple front to secure our unique identity, and character. Forthcoming elections offer us a unique chance of showing our detestation for the actions which were unilaterally undertaken by BJP on 5th of August, 2019. The issues at stake are fundamental, it's our pride, our unique character, our land and job rights, and our historical selfhood," he said.(KNS)
