The senior BJP leaders also appealed to the people of Jammu and Kashmir to wholeheartedly support the BJP in the next Assembly Elections to promote development improve infrastructure and attain sustainable and lasting peace in the region. Reddy said that Jammu and Kashmir has faced many difficulties due to the Abdullah family and Pakistan. They along with the skewed leadership of Congress retarded the development and gave rise to separatism here. “Today, under the strong leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah a historic decision to abrogate Article 370 was taken. He said that Dr Shyama Prasad Mookherjee and others sacrificed their lives and the whole nation has lived the struggle of Jammu and Kashmir. The Constitution of Dr Ambedkar was implemented in the rest of India but not in J&K and now the abrogation of Article 370 has marked the implementation of the Constitution in J&K as well. It was a herculean task to hoist the national flag in Kashmir earlier, but now the national flag hoists with pride in every corner of Jammu and Kashmir, including the Lal Chowk. August 5 has marked the beginning of a new dawn of development in J&K, he added.
The Union Minister said that under the Modi government, the focus has shifted to tourism from terrorism. Now democracy has strengthened and the SCs, STs, OBCs, Pahris have got their rights after the abrogation of Article 370, said Reddy.
Reddy further said that the Modi government avenged the martyrdom of every single jawan.
Tarun Chugh, in his address, said that on this day, the final tribute was paid to the ‘Do Vidhan, Do Nishan, Do Pradhan’ in the erstwhile state of Jammu & Kashmir. He remembered the sacrifice of Dr Shyama Prasad Mookherjee and his arrest while entering J&K. He said that the BJP progressed with the pious thought of unifying the J&K with the rest of India in letter and spirit, which was achieved by the Modi government on August 5,2019. He said the Prime Minister implemented the Constitution of India in Jammu and Kashmir as wished by Dr. BR Ambedkar.
“Today, the Narendra Modi government is continuously working on these three issues of development, trust and security in Jammu and Kashmir”, he said, adding that nobody can now bring back Article 370, while mentioning the articulations of Abdullah and Mufti on the abrogation of Article 370. He also took a jibe that they both lost the elections in their bastion. He charged the then CM Dr Farooq Abdullah for the regrettable displacement of Kashmiris in the horrible circumstances. He also warned the people, who ask for a repeat of 1990, that now Narendra Modi is the Prime Minister of India who has the guts to deal with the iron hand. The rule of 3 families pushed J&K into the bloodshed. As long as even one BJP worker is alive, who follows Shyama Prasad Mukherjee, and Premnath Dogra, and who has respect for Tikka Lal ji, this nightmare of yours will neither be fulfilled nor will it be allowed to happen, Chugh told Abdullahs and Muftis.
Ravinder Raina, in his address, congratulated the people of Jammu & Kashmir on the anniversary of the abrogation of Article 370 and remembered the contributions of Maharaja Hari Singh, Pt Prem Nath Dogra, Dr. Shyama Prasad Mookherjee and other greats.
Meanwhile, in BJP office Kachi Chawni, senior party leaders, Sat Sharma, former BJP President and former Minister, Yudhvir Sethi, BJP Vice-President, Parmod Kapahi, BJP District President, Arvind Gupta, Veenu Khanna BJP Secretaries, Sanjita Dogra, Mahila Morcha President and others hoisted ‘Tiranga’.
