STATE TIMES NEWS
Kathua: For BJP and its party workers especially MLAs the name of Narendra Modi is the magic wand which can sail through them the difficult times.
A cursory look on the work done by these peoples’ representatives is that hardly they have done work worth mentionable said a villager attending the yatra on Monday.
And now to reach out the people a Jan Sampark Yatra is being organised by BJP MLA Kathua Rajiv Jasrotia at village Lachipur, Bhage Chak, Jakhbar and other areas in Kathua constituency.
Speaking on the occasion, Jasrotia said that the party has decided to take out ‘Jan Sampark Yatra’ to cover the rural areas and educate the local population about achievements of BJP Government under PM Narendra Modi and apprise them the progammes and schemes launched for the development of rural areas and the welfare schemes for the farmers, particularly PM Fasal Bima Yojana and concessions to border youth in recruitment in Central Security Forces.
MLA further said that on one hand number of developmental activities have been initiated in rural areas and on the other, many incentives have been started for the farmers, as they are totally dependent on agriculture crop for their survival. Modi Government has taken initiative of doubling the income of farmers in next few years, which will be a major benefit to rural population. He also highlighted the achievements BJP coalition in J&K, he added.
Jasrotia, while addressing the gatherings at a number of places during the yatra, said that during the last two and half years, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken a number of initiatives aimed at bridging the gap between the rural and urban population and many more projects are in the pipeline which will change the face of the villages.
MLA maintained that Central Government is fully committed to ensure sustainable growth and faster development of entire Jammu and Kashmir. He said in order to achieve goal of equitable development, central government is extending helping hand to the state government by all possible means. “Because of the facilitating attitude of our Prime Minister Narendra Modi we are able to launch many pro-poor schemes and developmental projects which will definitely make a mark in the development of the State,” he said. Expressing gratitude to the central government, MLA said that the response of the Prime Minister and other central ministers to the development needs of the state has always remained very positive.
District President Prem Nath Dogra, Andar Mandal Pardhan Narinder Kala, Gen Sec. Jagdish Poonia and all dedicated workers of BJP of the area were present on this occasion.
A cross section of villagers STATE TIMES spoke rued that they have done nothing as far development is concerned till date and today again have started harping Modi ‘mantra’ to gain support. We doubt whether in the next assembly elections which would be due after two years BJP would get such big mandate for its candidates in the region.
