“This is not just a document for elections but an agenda for governance… A roadmap for the next five years…We are hopeful that we will get votes and form the government. So, we have made promises which we can fulfil,” Abdullah said. The NC leader, while releasing the 12-point manifesto, stated that NC will undo all the injustices done over the past few years and their vision of ‘Naya Kashmir‘ will be made a reality.

The NC started with the promise of restoring political and legal status to J&K and normalcy in the region. “Strive for full implementation of autonomy resolution, restoration of Article 370 and 35 (A) and statehood, besides encouraging dialogue with Pakistan and making efforts to secure release of prisoners languishing in jail,” says the manifesto.
