SRINAGAR: A special meeting of the Provincial Executive Committee of the Women’s Wing of the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference was held on Wednesday at the party headquarters, Nawa-e-Subha, under the chairmanship of Women’s Wing State President Advocate Shameema Firdous.
The meeting was organised by Provincial President Er. Sabiya Qadri and was attended by provincial office-bearers, district presidents and district secretaries.
During the meeting, detailed discussions were held on the organisational activities of the Women’s Wing, party programmes, public outreach campaigns, and the issues and challenges faced by the people. Participants also highlighted the ongoing developmental works in their respective areas, the problems confronting the public, and the demands and aspirations of the people.

Praising the performance of the government led by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, Firdous said that the government is working with commitment and sincerity for the development of Jammu and Kashmir, public welfare, and the provision of basic facilities to the people. She described the free bus service launched for the convenience and comfort of women as a welcome and people-friendly initiative that is directly benefiting thousands of women, female students and working women across the region.
She added that several other initiatives are also being undertaken for women’s safety, education, healthcare and economic empowerment which deserve appreciation.
She urged party workers to take the ideology of the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference, the party’s pro-people agenda, and the government’s developmental policies to every household so that people remain fully informed about these initiatives and welfare measures.
On the occasion, Provincial President Er. Sabiya Qadri, while addressing the gathering, urged women workers to further strengthen their connection with the public and carry the party’s agenda and the welfare-oriented achievements of the Omar Abdullah-led government to every doorstep.
Qadri stressed the need for Women’s Wing workers to intensify the public outreach campaign and strengthen organisational activities at the grassroots level in order to further consolidate and strengthen the party.
