Pune : Speaking during a keynote address at the Jammu and Kashmir International Film Festival held in Pune, Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari
said that the youth of Jammu and Kashmir is a strong willed and determined to make a positive change. Stating that if provided equal opportunities, they can make the nation proud, Bukhari lauded the efforts of Pune-based NGO, Sarhad for organising the maiden event.
He said that Sarhad’s mission of educating Kashmiris and providing them with a platform to showcase their talent is a noble cause as the youth of J&K is talented, dedicated and hardworking.
He said that the youth of Jammu and Kashmir possesses the urge and energy to make a mark in different fields however due to the lack of a viable platform they are robbed of equal opportunities to prove their mettle.
He stressed on the need to provide youth with a viable platform and a conducive atmosphere to hone their skills. Emphasising the need of recognising the talent, Bukhari lauded the efforts of organisers for bringing together artists from Jammu and Kashmir on a common platform.
