Mir expressed his deep concern over the growing unemployment. He said, “I feel pained to see young and educated people grappling with unemployment, while the administration does nothing about it.”
Expressing his anguish over the rising power tariffs, Ghulam Hassan Mir said, “On one hand, people are suffering from issues like increasing unemployment, lack of opportunities, and up trending inflation. On the other hand, the administration is imposing higher power tariffs on them and now plans to install water meters as well. Such initiatives clearly indicate that the administration is least bothered about the people’s problems.”
Urging the administration and police to ensure that common people are not harmed during counter-terrorism operations in Jammu and Kashmir, he said, “while the administration and security agencies have every right to act against terrorists, but innocent people should not subjected to sufferings during this process.”
He expressed his concern over the detentions of the youth and said, “It is painful to see that during visits of VVIPs, youth in some areas are called to police stations and detained until the conclusion of the dignitary’s visit. This practice must be stopped.”
