Former Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad, in his first public meeting in Jammu after quitting the party , announced to launch his own political outfit that will focus on the restoration of full statehood.
“I’ve not decided upon a name for my party yet. The people of J-K will decide the name and the flag for the party. I’ll give a Hindustani name to my party that everyone can understand,” Azad said at the rally after breaking away from his five-decade-long association with the grand old party.
“My party will focus on the restoration of full statehood, right to land and employment to native domicile,” he added.
Azad said that the first unit of his political outfit would be formed in Jammu and Kashmir in view of impending assembly polls.
“My party will focus on the restoration of full statehood, right to land and employment to native domicile,” he added.
He lashed out at Congress and said that people are trying to defame us (me and my supporters who left the party) but their reach is limited to computer tweets.
Criticising the party, Azad said, “Congress was made by us by our blood, not by computers, not by Twitter. People are trying to defame us but their reach is limited to computers and tweets. That is the reason Congress is nowhere to be seen on the ground.”
