| Regional parties believe in rhetoric, Congress in 'developmental agenda': Azad | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Dec 5: Launching a scathing attack on the regional political parties NC and PDP, Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha & Former Chief Minister of J&K, Ghulam Nabi Azad without naming them said that they (regional parties) are making failed attempts to gain sympathy of the people by misleading them in the name of fighting BJP.
Azad said that people of the State are wise enough to understand the tantrums of the regional political parties, as their covert attempts to court the saffron Party are hidden from none.
"Congress stands for harmony, regional balance and unity of the State whereas the regional parties covertly or otherwise propel disharmony giving fillip to the divisive agenda of BJP", reiterated Azad. Leader of Opposition Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad said this while addressing a mammoth public meeting at Khag, Beerwah in support of the Congress Party candidate Nazir Ahmad Khan.
Exhorting the people to reject the opportunist politics of the regional political parties, Azad said that both the regional parties took full advantage of the support extended by Congress to enjoy the power & pelf, to follow it up with vile attempts to discredit the contributions of the Congress.
He said that UPA Government extended unprecedented political and financial support to both the regional parties in running the affairs of the State, and instead of acknowledging it, they have been displaying rank opportunism to besmirch its role, adding that the people of the State have fully comprehended their devious agenda and have decided to reject them.
"We only fulfilled our commitments and agreements with the regional parties while their role and cooperation has been dubious and distasteful", said Azad.
Reminding the people about the performance, people-friendly and balanced approach of the Congress led Govt from 2006-08, Azad said that we are seeking decisive mandate from the people of the State on the plank of development. Further describing the train from Baramullah to Banihal as a landmark achievement of the Congress, Azad said that rail connectivity has brought enormous relief & support to the people of the Valley and has eased their lives. He said that similarly the upgradation of Srinagar-Jammu National Highway is yet another stellar contribution of Congress.
Urging the people to give one opportunity to the Congress to lead the Government, Azad said that we promise an era of progress and prosperity for the State of Jammu & Kashmir, without indulging in sterile rhetoric.
Underlining the need of rebuilding the flood-ravaged Kashmir Valley, Azad said that the Congress Party will focus on rehabilitating the flood-victims on a priority basis and will take immediate steps to provide adequate compensation to the people of the State.
Azad took a dig at the NDA Government for not showing seriousness to respond appropriately to the colossal tragedy inflicted by the floods in Kashmir Valley.
Azad took a jibe saying "why the other political parties, who tend to be self-righteous, had gone into hibernation when the people of Kashmir Valley were submerged in the unprecedented floods".
Ghulam Nabi Azad made a fervent appeal to the people of the State to give decisive and convincing mandate to the Congress Party to script a new chapter of progress, prosperity and economic revival. |
