Slams Congress, NC, PDP for neglecting Jammu region
STATE TIMES NEWS
JAMMU: BJP candidate for Jammu North constituency, Sham Lal Sharma on Friday said that Congress, NC, PDP never voiced for the cause and welfare of Jammu people, but their politics remained focused on Kashmir valley only.
It is BJP that not only registered concern about Jammu people but always advocated and fought for the welfare, equal justice and fair treatment with this region.
Addressing public gatherings at various wards in Jammu North constituency, Sham said that BJP is poised to get a clear mandate to form its next Government in Jammu Kashmir with first ever Dogra Hindu Chief Minister, which was a long cherished demand and dream of people of this region. He said that the long wait is over and after 8th October the BJP will fulfil the wishes of Jammuites.
Maintaining that Congress, NC, PDP always discriminated against Jammu on all fronts and people continued to suffer for justice, but no one listened to their plight. These parties made all out efforts to undermine the rich Dogra culture, heritage and their sacrifices for the cause of the nation as well as Jammu Kashmir. Now the time has come when the people of this region will give them a befitting reply and elect an exclusive BJP headed government, Sham asserted.
Assuring the people to fill the gap within a shortest possible time, adding that BJP after coming to power will give focused attention to the overall development of Jammu region for which it remained neglected for over seven decades. The government will work with the power of a double engine as the Central Government will ensure free flow of funds for the development of every neglected area. Whatever promises and guarantees have been made by the party in its manifesto will be implemented on ground without wasting any time, Sham assured.
Holding fully responsible to NC, Congress and PDP for the turmoil and bloodshed in Kashmir during the past over three decades, Sham said that these parties misled the people, made false promises and hollow slogans in the name of so-called Self Rule and Autonomy in Jammu Kashmir. Instead of working for the welfare of people and providing justice to the needy, they supported the pro-Pak agenda, anti-national forces, promoted separatism, communalism and incited peoples’ sentiments against India. Now onwards nobody will be buying their false promises and green pastures and they will face ugly defeats in the elections, he asserted.
He urged the workers to step up their public outreach efforts, contact every individual voter to cast their votes for the BJP to ensure a peaceful, secured and prosperous Jammu Kashmir.
Prominent among those who addressed the gatherings included Mandal Presidents Ravish Mengi, Suresh Khajuria, Ex Corporators Sunita Gupta, Mohinder Kumar, Ashok Singh Manhas and Suraj Padha.
