He said, ‘’It is not the time to get terrified due to the tough ordeals of the times. It is the moment to stay firm, far-sighted and resolved to retrieve Jammu and Kashmir from uncertainty. It is a long game; the leadership will have to be patient if they want to achieve something for the people of J&K. The People’s Conference is the party that has a legacy of sacrifices. We will continue to strive to accord people a dignified way of living.”

Lone stressed the need for young leaders to be connected with the people at the grassroots level, have their voices heard and become partners in the decision-making process.
“The PC is committed to promoting active participation of youth at every level in the party and giving them bigger responsibilities. Active and meaningful participation of the youth is imperative to address the challenges that have an impact on them and their future. We are committed to creating space for the youth to take the mantle of responsibility and play a pivotal role to facilitate J&K’s transition from changelessness to change’, he added.
On the occasion, former PDP Zonal Secretary North Kashmir Mohammad Ashraf Malik joined the PC in the presence of Sajad Lone and senior leader Mir Mohammad Fayaz.
While welcoming the new entrant, Lone said, “This is a march; new people have joined the party. I am confident that our team will be able to navigate the people of J&K through these difficult and challenging times. We have already emerged as a formidable political force. Together, hopefully, we will write a new chapter in the frontier district.”.
