POONCH: JKPCC Chief G.A Mir said that Modi Government does not have a concrete roadmap to deal with Pakistan and resolve worsening situation in Valley.
He was addressing a largely attended Congress Rally here on Wednesday. The JKPCC Chief said that during UPA regime headed by Dr. Manmohan Singh there was calm on the LoC, however, Prime Minister Narendra Modi exploited the countrymen describing the UPA Government as weak. “Now when situation on the border has worsened a lot as also in Kashmir”, Mir questioned the Modi Government of its strong policy. He said that ceasefire violations have become a routine affair and the people all along borders are paying the price besides large number of civilians and Jawans martyred. “Modi should explain BJP Government’s strong policy and roadmap to deal with the situation”, he asserted.
He asked the party workers to gear up their activities in order to strengthen the party and play the role of a responsible and vibrant opposition as assigned to the party by the people. He said that Congress has always played a vital role in cementing the relationship of peace, brotherhood and integrity in the State.
Mir said that if Government is sincere about the discussion regarding holding of Panchayat elections, we propose all party meeting which should be chaired by Chief Minister, as she is having the charge of Home Minister as well as Election Department.
