While welcoming Mir sahib into the party-fold, Sajad Lone expressed confidence that the PC would benefit from Mir’s administrative experience gained during his bureaucratic career.

“The party will immensely benefit from the experience of Mohammad Ashraf Mir sahib in public life. His legal acumen and expertise in administrative matters will hugely help the party especially in wake of insurmountable and tremendous legal and administrative challenges faced by the people of J&K. The entry of professionals like Mir sahib into Peoples Conference indicates the positive impact this party has made among the intelligentsia in J&K,” he said.

I have earlier had the occasion to work with and for the people of J&K. Not only was it professionally an absolute privilege but also personally it was most satisfying. I want to participate and, to the extent that I can, contribute, to this overall change by working within aegis of the Peoples Conference. I will work alongside the party’s rank and file in ensuring that the party’s flag flies high in J&K,” he said.
