Heartbreak in Jammu & Kashmir as a bus accident near Kagort village in Udhampur leaves 15 dead. Even though rescue teams acted swiftly, the loss was immense.

Extending my deep solidarity to bereaved families and speedy recovery to the injured.

Zaffer Mir tears into ruling NC over Chadoora's Crumbling Bridges, Unsafe Water & Stalled Projects

Rallies party cardes for upcoming ULB polls

Srinagar, April 17: Senior PDP leader Zaffer Mir (Lasjan) on Friday chaired a series of workers' meetings across Chattergam (BK Pora) and Chadoora town in Budgam, mobilising party cadres ahead of the forthcoming Urban Local Body elections covering 13 wards of Chadoora and using the occasion to mount a pointed offensive against the National Conference government and the constituency's sitting MLA.

Zaffer spared little in his criticism, accusing the NC of administrative neglect and a wholesale failure to deliver for the people of Chadoora. "The people of this area are suffering not because resources are unavailable, but because the will to act is absent," he told workers gathered at the meetings. "The MLA has been a spectator while basic needs go unmet."

A central focus of Zaffer's address was the deteriorating condition of the bridge connecting Chadoora with Charar-i-Sharief and Yousmarg, a vital artery for daily commuters. He demanded its immediate repair and upgradation, alleging that repeated public grievances had gone unheeded.

Compounding concerns, he raised the alarming issue of unfiltered drinking water continuing to reach homes in Chadoora town and surrounding villages. "This is not a minor inconvenience but a public health emergency that has been allowed to fester through sheer indifference," Zaffer asserted.

At a well-attended gathering in Chattergam, joined by former Sarpanch Mohd Sadiq Dar and PDP Youth State Secretary Syed Amjid Rizvi, Zaffer demanded the immediate upgradation of Community Health Centre Chattergam to a Sub-District Hospital. He expressed sharp disappointment that a visit and review by the Health Minister had yielded nothing concrete.

"The structure is ready and the capacity exists. What is lacking is the official notification and deployment of specialist doctors and adequate medical staff," Zaffer said.

He also flagged a glaring safety gap in the area's industrial zone, which has no dedicated fire service station and must rely on Chadoora's overstretched facilities during emergencies.

On education, Zaffer said he had personally pursued the upgradation of a local high school to higher secondary level, including direct meetings with the then Director of Education, and that custodian land had been identified with all formalities completed. Yet the project sits frozen.

"This stalling is a direct consequence of the inefficiency and misplaced priorities of the NC government and its MLA," he said.

Reaffirming his commitment to the region, Zaffer vowed to keep pressing the genuine concerns of Chadoora's residents. "Development will reach every corner of this constituency with or without the cooperation of those who have chosen to look away."

Zaffer Mir hails expansion of Srinagar International Airport enclave as milestone for Kashmir’s economy

Seeks maximum employment in the project for J&K youth

Srinagar, February 24: Senior PDP leader Zaffer Mir (Lasjan) has welcomed the Union Cabinet’s approval for the ₹1,677 crore development of a new civil enclave at Srinagar International Airport, terming it a decisive step towards strengthening Jammu & Kashmir’s economic backbone.

Zaffer said the expansion will significantly enhance air connectivity, boost tourism and open new avenues for trade and investment. He described the project as a strategic intervention that will elevate Srinagar’s stature as a key aviation hub in North India.

Emphasizing inclusive growth, Zaffer Mir strongly called for priority employment to local youth in all phases of ex*****on ranging from construction to operations. He asserted that the true success of the project lies in ensuring that skilled and unskilled manpower from Jammu & Kashmir directly benefits.

Zaffer maintained that with rising tourist inflow and growing passenger traffic, the upgraded airport infrastructure will ease access to major destinations such as Dal Lake and Gulmarg, while generating large-scale employment and strengthening allied sectors.

Calling it a milestone moment, he said the airport expansion is not just about infrastructure, but about securing a more prosperous and self-reliant future for the people of Jammu & Kashmir.
