Jammu Janipur / :
Haji Faiz Ahmad Bhat Senior
Socio-Political Leader paid glowing tributes to Late Sheri-I-Kashmir Sheikh Mohd Abdullah 0n his 120th birth anniversary.
While speaking , Haji Faiz Said that majority population of our state lives in rural areas, and mentioned that being rural area, Late sheikh Mohd Abdullah, some 70 years back had added a chapter in the Naya Kashmir Document, it was an attempt, first of its kind at that point of time in the whole subcontinent, where the focus was laid on the empowerment of the women.
He was the man who gave dignity to the labour of a poor peasant who, till then, had to till for his landlord and return home barehanded, Sheikh Abdullah was a charismatic leader and social reformer who fought for the rights of oppressed sections of society irrespective of caste, creed or religion, Said Haji Faiz.
While paying homage to Sheri Kashmir Haji Faiz recalled Sheikh Sahib’s significant contribution in laying the foundation of Jammu and Kashmir as a secular, peaceful and progressive state.
Sheikh Abdullah’s policy of ‘Land to the tiller’ signalled a new era of peasant emancipation.
‘The Big Landed Estates Abolition Act’ legalized the radical land reform, which was the last nail to the coffin of feudal system.
Jammu and Kashmir was the first state to pass such a revolutionary law that gave ownership rights to peasants over lands they had been tilling for landlords. The peasant emancipation reform was the greatest achievement of Sheikh Abdullah, Said Haji Faiz.
Haji Faiz Further said I want that national conference back who was at the time of Sheri Kashmir and I request To Jinab Farooq Abdullah Sahab and Omar Abdullah Sahab identifyand bring those Workers Back In Party .
