Jammu:
Working Committee Meeting of Distt. Jammu (Urban) BJP was held here today. BJP State President Shri Ashok Khajuria, former Union MoS & senior BJP leader Prof. Chaman Lal Gupta and Distt. President Shri Kavinder Gupta lighted the traditional lamp and inaugurated the meet. About 100 members, including mandal presidents, ward presidents and JMC Corporators of BJP participated in the meeting.
Khajuria, while addressing the meeting, stressed on strengthening the organizational set up. He said BJP is not only a political party but a movement aimed at a making the people aware about their responsibility towards the nation.
Terming the Congress leader and Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad as more harmful for Jammu than Farooq Abdullah and Mufti Mohd. Sayeed, Khajuria said the CM has intentionally ignored Jammu region in all matters and all spheres. He said the extent of his non-seriousness towards the problems being faced by the Jammuites is clear from his statement that he was not aware of the prevailing water crisis in Jammu.
A person who is unaware of the problems after being in power for two years has no right to continue as the CM and as such should step down, he said and added that the Congress, like NC and PDP, too has turned out valley –centric and anti-Jammu.
Chaman Lal Gupta, in his address, said that the BJP in the state had to pay heavy price in 2002 assembly elections for its alliance with the NC at the centre because the people of Jammu region had not forgotten the maltreatment given by Sheikh Abdullah to them.
He said the NC right from 50s has treated the Jammu region as a colony and always suppressed the voice of the people by resorting to inhuman treatment.
Kavinder Gupta, in his inaugural address, said that the people of Jammu city, who returned three MLAs of Congress to the State assembly with high hopes are feeling betrayed and have made up their mind to teach these leaders of Congress a lesson in the coming elections.
The working Committee, later, adopted a resolution asking the partymen to take pledge to work for the mitigation of the sufferings of the people and ensuring victory of the BJP so that the 60 year old discrimination is ended and people of Jammu region get their legitimate share.
