He said that Yashpal Sharma is highly dedicated towards the welfare and development of the people as well as the region.
Shahzad said that the rail link between Jammu and Poonch was initiated and the feasibility ensured and also subsequently approved but just on the pretext of high cost factor it was shelved. He said that the present government has always discriminated against the people of Pir Panjal region. There is also a need of air travel facility for the people of the region but despite having an airstrip, which used to operate earlier, nothing is being done to restore it.
