“Kashmiris have been subjected to
political exploitation for more than six decades now”: Darakhshan
SDP’s Four Day Long Extensive Programme of Meetings of all
District bodies of Kashmir Province concluded at Srinagar
District level meetings of Socialistic
Democratic Party were held at SDP Headquarters in Srinagar from 10th
of this month to 13th of this month which were presided by SDP
president Dr Darakhshan Andrabi. This extensive meeting programme was held in
order to devise the election strategy for 2014 Assembly polls. In today’s
concluding function all the office bearers of district committees of SDP and
Youth SDP of Kashmir province were present. In her concluding presidential
address SDP president Dr Darakhshan Andrabi said that Kashmiris have been
subjected to political exploitation for more than six decades now. She said
that the common man is subjected to the dirtiest kind of politics that only
exploits the masses. “People are fed-up with their political representatives
and they feel deceived. Political representatives of all parties have weakened
the faith of the common man in the political system of the state,” said
Darakhshan. She said that the assets and bank balance of the politicians and
specially the elected members fatten within no time but the common man’s life
finds no financial and social support from them at all. Dr Andrabi said that it
was the ripe time for the people of the state to think afresh about their
choice of people-friendly political future and this process has initiated. She
said that SDP has great public acceptability among masses in areas where our
ideology has reached. She said that up to now party’s influence was limited to
restricted quarters in Kashmir valley but over the last six months our door to
door campaigns have worked a lot in winning over immense public support in
different Assembly constituencies. Dr Andrabi said that the people of Kashmir
dream of establishment of a genuine political order which does not exploit them
by their sentimentalist sloganeering but realy deliver some good. “Politics is
a pious job and it has been made dirty by those who have remained in the front
row of politics in Kashmir for the last six decades,” said Darakhshan.
