Founded on principles, driven by dialogue and reconciliation—PDP’s vision remains the remedy Jammu and Kashmir needs amid ongoing pervasive situation: Spokesman
Srinagar, Oct 24: The People’s Democratic Party (PDP), under the leadership of its president and former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti, convened a meeting of senior leaders in Srinagar on Thursday. The gathering focused on reviewing the party’s performance in the recently concluded Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections and strategizing future actions.
The spokesperson said that the principles and ideas on which the PDP was founded remain highly relevant. “We consider these principles the most appropriate remedy for the problems faced by Jammu and Kashmir. At the core of our mission is dialogue, and the current pervasive situation demands addressing the root cause. Regardless of electoral outcomes, the PDP has an essential role to play. We will continue raising issues concerning the people and extend support to the government wherever our voice can contribute to securing constitutional rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir,” the spokesperson added.
The PDP spokesperson stated that the party will draft detailed proposals to strengthen its grassroots presence and reconnect with the public. The party aims to highlight its achievements and reaffirm itself as a viable democratic alternative.
He further noted that the PDP is willing to support any party that shares its mission of safeguarding public rights. “Despite sustained assaults on the PDP, including a mass exodus of leaders, MLAs, and MLCs, this election has demonstrated that the PDP is here to stay. We are committed to rebuilding, addressing our weaknesses from the recent polls, and expanding our worker base to ensure effective voter mobilization in future elections.”
The party stressed that it is preparing for the upcoming municipal, panchayat, and District Development Council (DDC) elections with renewed vigor. “Our well-structured grassroots network will be activated in line with the political vision of our founder, Mufti Mohammad Sayeed,” the spokesperson said.
