Srinagar, Jul 10: Awami Ittehad Party (AIP) has said that the approval of Rs 336 crore worth of road projects under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) for Baramulla parliamentary constituency is a result of efforts from jailed MP and AIP President Engineer Rashid.
In a statement, AIP Chief Spokesperson Inam Un Nabi said, “Despite being unjustly jailed since 2019 in Tihar, Engineer Rashid’s resolve to serve the people of Jammu & Kashmir remains unshaken. This approval stands as proof of his foresight and deep-rooted connection with the grassroots.”
Inam Un Nabi added, “This is not just a developmental milestone, it is a political message: jail walls cannot cage Engineer Rashid’s spirit when he carries people’s pain and hope in his heart.” He commended the dedication of Engineer Rashid’s team for their tireless efforts in pursuing the projects and ensuring his vision is translated into action, even in his absence.
The AIP urged authorities to ensure timely execution of the approved projects and reaffirmed its commitment to justice, development and people’s empowerment.
