In these times of crisis, the nation and the community comes first. We are all for any solution that aims to alleviate the dire situation we are in.

A senior, competent two-man team needs to sit together and prepare for this transformation—one from each side—who can plan and execute everything necessary.
It’s not an ideal situation for either side. We need to hold hands and cross the hurdle together.
