Jammu, Feb 3 (KNC): Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) MLA from Budgam, Aga Syed Muntazir, on Tuesday said that Budgam has been deliberately turned into an “abnormal constituency” where no meaningful development has taken place, and vowed to use his position in the Assembly to restore the dignity of the people.
Speaking to reporters outside the Assembly complex in Jammu, Aga Syed Muntazir, as per news agency Kashmir News Corner (KNC), said, “Everyone knows the condition of Budgam and how it has been made an abnormal constituency, where not even basic work has been done. The dignity of the people has been trampled upon for the last 40 years. Now I will make every effort to restore that dignity. I will use this House to ensure that the honour of Budgam’s people, which was taken away in the name of honesty, is restored at all costs.”
Responding to the National Conference’s criticism of the PDP, Muntazir said his party’s agenda has always been focused on public welfare rather than political confrontation.
“Our party’s manifesto has always been about making the lives of the people of Jammu and Kashmir easier. That is the direction we are working in,” he said, adding that, “Perhaps that is why NC feels we are not doing politics—and they are right. We are not doing politics; instead, we are focused on how governance functions and how best we can serve the people.” (KNC)
