Congress committed to ensuring protection of rights of J&K people: Bhalla
STATE TIMES NEWS
JAMMU: JKPCC Working President Raman Bhalla on Friday urged the Election Commission of India to hold simultaneous Legislative Assembly and the Parliamentary elections in the Jammu and Kashmir because the people would get an elected Govt after five years of gap.
Bhalla raised this demand while addressing aggrieved people of RS Pura Jammu South constituency. Five years have passed to Jammu and Kashmir without an elected Govt.
Bhalla said the biggest achievement of BJP is that the J&K is now on the top of the states and UTs to have the highest percentage of educated unemployed youth. The unemployment rate in J&K is highest in the country and this is the achievement of BJP-controlled administration.
Bhalla said Congress is committed to ensuring the protection of the rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir and bringing them out of the miseries they have been facing for quite a long time.
He said, “In the prevailing uncertainty in Jammu and Kashmir, Congress stands as a beacon of hope, with its leadership dedicated to bringing about a positive change here. Unlike other political parties, we do not aspire to attain power just to rule but to serve the people. We stand in support of the people of Jammu and Kashmir like a rock, as our mission is to protect their rights and ensure their prosperity and well-being.”
He urged the party workers to remain active in order to strengthen the organisational set-up further.
