JAMMU: Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party candidate from Nagrota Assembly constituency Advocate Vilakshan Singh made a fervor appeal to masses of Nagrota to vote in his favour asserting that he is committed to develop the Nagrota constituency as a model constituency.
Calling upon people to foil the machinations of anti-peace forces, Vilakshan Singh said that communal politics has no place in a state that has been abode of the people belonging to different faiths, who have been living in harmony”. He said reactionary forces have always got a befitting reply and they have never succeeded in breaking the will of people for maintaining peace and tranquility.
Addressing press conference at party headquarters here today, Vilakshan said he decried the opportunistic politics of Congress, NC and PDP, besides divisive attempts of BJP and said National Panthers Party only believes in serving the people rather than craving for power.
He said that BJP exploited the voters of Jammu region in the name of Article 370 of the Constitution of India and was able to win both MP seats from Jammu province but now BJP has forgotten all its promises and slogans given in the past. He said that if BJP is loyal to the people of Jammu, it should bring Bill in the Parliament for abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution of India and the issue of abrogation of Article 370 should be debated in the parliament. He further said that BJP also seeks votes for ending the “Bhai- Batijavad” but it again took U-turn on this issue by giving mandate to the brother of its State President and sitting MP from Jammu-Poonch Lok Sabha seat.
Vilakshan Singh said that even during the natural disaster which wrecked havoc in the state, the central BJP government kept its focus on Kashmir province and ignored Jammu province totally. He said that the people of Jammu province had voted for BJP in LoK Sabha elections after losing faith in Congress and NC government but now they are feeling cheated. He urged the voters of Jammu province, in general and the Nagrota Constituency in particular to vote for the candidates of J and K National Panthers Party which has consistently fought for the rights of the people of Jammu region.
