Srinagar, September 11 : After being released from Tihar Jail on interim bail, Baramulla MP Engineer Rashid has reiterated his commitment to fighting for the welfare of his people and rejecting the central government’s “Naya Kashmir” narrative.
Addressing the media, Engineer Rashid said, “I will not let down my people. I take a pledge that I will fight PM Modi’s narrative of ‘Naya Kashmir’, which has failed totally in J&K.”

Engineer Rashid also drew a distinction between his fight and that of other political leaders, saying, “My fight is bigger than what Omar Abdullah says. His fight is for the chair, my fight is for the people.”
