Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader and Ex VC JK Cements Ltd, Er Nazir Ahmad Yatoo on Saturday paid tributes to Begum Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah on her 20th Death Anniversary.
In a statement issued here, senior PDP leader, Er Nazir Ahmad Yatoo said, “She carried forward the mission of Sher-e-Kashmir to realise a dignified place for the people and ensuring their empowerment. Whenever historians will write on Sher-e-Kashmir, they cannot afford to ignore Madr-e-Meharban, as the persona of the tallest among the towering leaders of the time was incomplete without this great lady.”
He said that, People of Jammu and Kashmir will always remain indebted to her for keeping the great mission of Sher-e-Kashmir alive during his long spell of imprisonment. Her contribution in promotion of female literacy and empowerment of weaker sections of society is exemplary.
Yatoo said, Madr-e-Meharban was not only a pillar of moral support to Sher-e-Kashmir Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah but also a compassionate mother of the people who always demonstrated a commitment to lead them in his absence against all odds.
“Madre Maharbaan drew her energy from the Quranic teachings. Her faith in Holy Quran and Hadith reinforced her belief in the Sufis. She continued to be a pillar of strength for the party workers, functionaries until her death. On this day I pay my tributes to her. Her personality will continue to guide the party rank and file for all the times to come,” PDP leader said in a statement issued here.
