SAMBA: The people of Jammu and Kashmir have been deprived by the fundamental rights and basic amenities for the last six years since BJP came into power. The educated and unemployed youth of the UT are forced to do labour work in BJP rule. This was stated by former Minister and senior Congress leader Raman Bhalla while campaigning in favour of Congress candidate Parshotam Lal from Samba-B at Panchayat Sadoh, Panj Tilla, Kalli Pari.

Tehsildar Satpal, Sandokh Chand, Rishi Kumar Sharma, Chaman Lal Sharma, Karnal Chand beside others.
Bhalla said that BJP has betrayed the citizens of J&K people from the year 2014 in diverse fronts.
Taking a dig at the BJP led government, he said that the government has failed to create jobs for the youth and instead of creating new jobs, BJP is on the wrong track and is damaging the present job scenario with its new recruitment and retirement laws.
From time to time, BJP has come up with the anti-people policies whether it be traffic and transport sector wherein vehicle tax has been increased to 9% and 11% , three farmer laws which would apparently destroy the farming sectors and make the farmers slaves of corporate sector, land laws in the UT of J&K due to which the whole erstwhile state was endangered, he said.
“The matter of fact is that BJP has failed the people of J&K on all fronts and deprived the masses of their rights. However, Congress on the other hand in power for 70 years has taken all the developmental steps people witness nowadays,” he said.
Apart from denying the people high speed 4G Internet for more than one year, the BJP has failed to streamline the far flung and border belts with cellular services, Bhalla said and added that Congress has done immense initiatives to felicitate the people.
Bhalla said that BJP Government has failed to address the genuine concerns of the people of the State.
PCC leader lashed out at ruling BJP for failing to address genuine concerns of the people, as a result people were facing lot of hardships in every respect.
He also blamed the Govt for being insensitive to people’s problems and failed to concentrate on genuine issues concerning people and now making tall claims about development of State and people.
Bhalla while blaming the Govt said that the process of developmental has come to standstill, although the Govt is making tall claims day in and day out with regard to developmental, but visibly there were no development taking place, anywhere on the ground.
He said mere issuing statements won’t serve any purpose which amounts to create confusion among the people in order to divert the attention from the failures of the Govt. Govt failed to address problems confronting people on top priority to ensure their resolution, ensuring that people get some respite from the harsh winter, adding that BJP regime is discriminating with people under the garb of development.
