“The terrorism is the enemy of development. The people of Jammu and Kashmir have long bore the brunt of terrorism, and the youth here are dreaming high. Their wings allow them to reach where the youth of the country and the world have reached,” he said.
The LG said that society also has a responsibility to stand up and those who do not rise are left behind. “Whatever narrative is created to support terrorism, it is the need of the hour to expose such people,” he said. (KNO)
