| PDP asks people not to get mislead by NC, Cong on AIIMS issue | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Aug 4: Strongly condemning Congress and National Conference leadership for politicizing the settled issue of AIIMS in Jammu region, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) today said that after announcement of the Union Health Minister, J P Nadda there was no justification to continue the stir because demand of the people has already been fulfilled by the Centre. In a joint statement issued here today, senior leaders of the PDP cautioned the people against nefarious designs of Congress and National Conference because after losing power both the parties were trying to create hurdles in the function of the present PDP-BJP government. Party observed that neither the leaders of Congress nor of National Conference are well wishers of the people of J&K and their only aim was to be-fool the people for cheap politics. "Leaderships of the both the parties are trying to instigate people on a settled issue", they said and sought reply from the Congress leaders regarding steps taken during the last six years to improve health infrastructure in Jammu region. "From 2008 to 2014 Health Ministry was under Congress ministers, both at State as well as in the Centre but nothing has been done to improve health infrastructure in Jammu region", they said and regretted that instead of taking some effective steps to provide basic health facilities to the people of J&K, Congress Ministers had rather made hospitals and health centres as battle fields to score political points to undermine their political rivals. Signatories of the statement included Sardar Rangil Singh, former Minister, Daman Bhasin, state general secretary, Ved Mahajan, ex-MLC, Shanti Devi, Ex-MLA, Yashpal Sharma, MLC, Firdous Tak, MLC, Surinder Choudhary, MLC, Hussain Ali Wafa, Hamid Choudhary Jatinder Bhat, state secretary and Sardar Sukhvinder Singh. |
