“This is high time for Jammuites to unite and protest against this autocratic and communal decision of government,” he said. Singh questioned BJP to clear their stand on this decision. Singh warned State Government if it changes the nomenclature of this cable project then be ready for facing the resentment of lakhs of Jammuites. Others present in the protest were lovely Singh, Lucky Chib, Chetan Sharma, Baldev Singh, Sumit Singh and Shubam Jasrotia.
