JAMMU: Pulverising the secessionist ideology in the backdrop of series of sedition rows, JKNPP’s Tiranga Rally entered Lakhanpur in Jammu via Pathankot on Friday morning.
The nationalist rally comprising of more than 100 cars was led by Harsh Dev Singh Chairman JKNPP, Balwant Singh Mankotia State President JKNPP and Yashpal Kundal State President Young Panthers was given a red carpet welcome by thousands of people especially the youth all the way.
The leaders visited the statue site of Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee at Lakhanpur and paid floral tributes to the national patriot who made supreme sacrifice for ensuring the complete integration of J and K with India.
Thereafter, the rally passed through the entire Kathua city, Barnoti, Rajbagh, Dayalachak, Hiranagar, Jatwal, Samba and Vijaypur where they were received enthusiastically by the local public and the Panthers party workers.
The rally reached Party headquarters in Gandhi Nagar Jammu late in the evening which shall proceed to Srinagar from Press Club on Saturday morning.
Expressing displeasure over the BJP’s jingoistic harangues turning into false rants, Harsh disclosed before the media that the Saffron party had meekly capitulated to secessionist and anti nationals on the NIT Kashmir row.
He said that the Indian as well as State polity had been marred by several sedition rows and other conflicts on the advent of BJP coming to power.
He added that BJP’s theory of ‘Zero tolerance’ proved null when on several occasions anti national elements brazenly unfurled ISIS and Pak flags in Kashmir with pro Pak and anti India slogans. He lampooned the BJP for remaining despicably dormant during several incidents when the Tricolour was desecrated by the felons in Kashmir who were given amnesty to move scot free.
Likewise, the nationalist students of NIT Kashmir were abused, assaulted and manhandled by the State police for waving national flag inside the institute on the behest of BJP-PDP government but the stone pelters and other malefactors were spared untouched.
Addressing the public and the media persons in Lakhanpur, Harsh lamented the pusillanimous surrenders of the BJP by abandoning the philosophy of Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee only to occupy a second fiddle role in the PDP led government. He said that BJP stood amply exposed for its politics of subterfuge and acts of betrayals which had eroded its mass base in its core constituency.
Flaying the BJP’s malicious designs to quell the NIT student movement, he said that the Tiranga Rally which started from Lal Quila Delhi shall culminate at Lal Chowk Kashmir to hoist the National flag and spread a message of National integrity, peace and harmony. He said that JKNPP shall uphold the dignity and honour of the Tricolour and would leave no stone unturned to expose the baleful designs of the opportunist and power hungry forces.
