Srinagar:
Former deputy chief minister and independent candidate for Baramulla assembly, Muzaffar Hussain Baig, stated on Sunday that the abrogation of Article 370 didn’t bring any significant benefits to Jammu and Kashmir.
Speaking with reporters, Baig mentioned that there was no tangible harm in retaining the constitutional provision that granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
Meanwhile, Baig, who is contesting the assembly election as an independent candidate, also released his manifesto for the Baramulla constituency. He promised to revamp town infrastructure with all-weather road connectivity, recreation centers, health facilities, and waste management systems.
“A particular focus will be on establishing post-harvest fruit technologies and launching cable car projects to boost tourism,” he said.
In his manifesto, Baig also promised upgradation of government school infrastructure, and the eradication of the drug menace by setting up de-addiction centers. (KNO)
