“NC has always kept its doors open for the young, as they can prove extremely effective in framing policies, particularly for themselves concerning their contemporary issues. Having educated youth from Jammu, Doda, Kishtwar, Rajouri, and Poonch and likewise from Kashmir and ladakh in our fold will ensure a greater sense of inclusiveness in our NC family. The participation, I impress upon you, should not stop with you but it should snowball. You have to encourage more and more youth to use the NC platform to have their aspirations fulfilled. I hope your stint in public life will act as an example for other educated youth to join politics and NC in particular. NC identifies itself with every sect, caste, creed, religion, region of J&K. ours is an inclusive ideology with deep rooted commitment towards secularism, socialism, participatory democracy, and welfarism,” he said.
