AJK PM welcomes rebuke to those ‘misusing JAAC’ platform’

Azad Jammu and Kashmir Prime Minister Faisal Mumtaz Rathore has welcomed a recent statement by a senior leader of the Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC). The statement acknowledged that the JAAC platform is being misused by certain individuals, a development the Prime Minister described as positive.

PM Rathore shared a video clip of the address by Umar Nazir Kashmari, a senior JAAC leader, delivered at a sit-in protest. He expressed his hope that this acknowledgment would pave the way for constructive dialogue. "Positive. Now let's talk and resolve issues on the table instead of [the] streets," Rathore stated.

In his speech, Mr. Kashmiri had sought to distance the JAAC alliance from controversial speeches and slogans that have emerged from its platform. He asserted that only remarks made by the core leadership should be considered the organization's official position. Kashmiri clarified that the JAAC's struggle is strictly confined to the demands outlined in its charter and has no connection to personal, ideological, or organizational agendas promoted by individuals.
