GNS JAMMU 5th December, : Mr Shakir Siddiqui, Senior leader PDP OF District Kishtwar said that the promises made by the national Conference led Coalition Government at the time of 2008 Elections have not fulfilled so far. This Government has failed on all fronts particularly it has no clear cut policy for the unemployed Educated Youth who were promised at the time of Election that they all will be given suitable employment and even announced that Middle Pass Youth of far flung areas shall also be accommodated in Police and other Paramilitary Forces. But all promised made remained in air only. A number of highly Qualified Educated Youth skilled/Unskilled are running from pillar to post for getting employment but so far nothing happened and many young educated youth have crossed their age of appointment and have been frustrated.

Mr. Shakir warned the government that if these unemployed youth are not adjusted/provided employment opportunities at the earliest a large scale agitation will be launched in whole of the District Kishtwar and the responsibilities of the repercussions thereof shall be that of the Government.

Shukla chatted with him for a long time but cautiously avoided any talk about the execution. “I will see you on Monday”, Butt’s counsel on record, the sallow-complexioned R.C. Pathak, had told him during a brief interview they were allowed on the evening of February 10. In answer, the condemned Kashmir Liberation Front leader, who was awarded the death sentence of the murder of a CID officer in 1966, had meaningfully remarked: “Do you think they will permit us a second meeting?” He was right! Butt was n...
