Baramulla, June 15: Nilofar Masood, the district president of the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) women’s wing and a lawyer, has commented on the situation in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (POJK). She emphasized the need to prioritize regional development, peace, and local issues over political rhetoric surrounding this matter.
In a recent conversation, Masood stated that all significant issues related to Jammu and Kashmir should be given priority. She pointed out that the local population has specific needs and expectations that require attention. According to her, the ideologies and statements of political parties are internal matters, but focusing on the interests of the public and regional peace is far more crucial.
Masood expressed that her party has always aimed to promote a message of peace and harmony throughout the region. She believes that establishing lasting peace in Jammu and Kashmir is of utmost importance, and all parties should play a constructive role in this endeavor.
She also prayed for peace in border areas and the restoration of normalcy there. Masood remarked that peace and stability are not merely political issues; they are deeply connected to the safety, development, and future of the common people.
Furthermore, she highlighted the historical and familial ties between the people of Jammu and Kashmir and those in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir. She recalled a time when crossing borders was relatively easy, allowing families to maintain contact. The current tense situation, she noted, affects people on both sides.
Masood stated that due to these relationships and emotional connections, the common people always hope for peace. She acknowledged that many residents here have relatives across the border, making any tension or conflict a cause for concern on both sides.
