He should instead raise people\u2019s issues in the Parliament that he deems are crucial and merit concern,\u201d she said.<br \/>\nShe added that the MP should fulfil his duties as a Parliamentarian and not criticise the NC-led Government here.<br \/>\nRuhullah later took to X, and said that those who bowed in obedience cannot raise their eyes to see the struggle of those who resist oppression.<br \/>\n\u201cThis Office understands that those who have bent their back in obedience can\u2019t look up to see the work of those fighting oppression. Since their servility may not allow them to follow Parliament or read official communications, we will gladly courier a compilation of speeches, interventions and updates to their desks.\u201d<br \/>\nHe said that those who have chosen servility cannot comprehend the role of those who continue to challenge oppression.<br \/>\nThe MP also listed several issues he has raised on the floor of Parliament, saying his record is publicly available. He said that the matters highlighted by him include the weakening of Kashmir\u2019s apple and horticulture sector, repeated illegal detentions, encroachments on Waqf properties and concerns over road, railway and health infrastructure.<br \/>\nHe pointed out that he had secured CT scan facilities for district hospitals and disbursed more than five crore rupees under the MPLADS fund.<br \/>\nThe MP also reminded that he had met Union Home Minister Amit Shah to press for the release of detainees and had separately taken up highway expansion and road development with Union Minister Nitin Gadkari. He said his efforts ensured that the extension of the Expressway from its existing point to Sonamarg via Srinagar was agreed upon.<br \/>\nIn addition, the MP mentioned facilitating hundreds of patients suffering from cancer and other life-threatening diseases by granting them relief from the Prime Minister\u2019s National Relief Fund (PMNRF).<br \/>\n\u201cAll of this is available for public viewing on Lok Sabha TV and through RTI,\u201d he wrote.<br \/>\n\u201cAs for the unsolicited advice to \u2018talk\u2019, your obedience to the oppressor may have earned you comfort, but it left us Kashmiris alone in the far harder task of challenging that very power,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32871\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32871\" style=\"width:
