Arora said that Jammu is a city of peace and good traditions and has remained so for centuries. The culture developed in this region was known as Dogra culture. People were very sensitive to human life with human heart and have greatly respected for human values.
BJP Senior leader added that people were so humble and they accommodated all be it refugees from Pakistan, PoK, War refugees or people who migrated from Kashmir during militancy because of their affiliations due to great deep-rooted respect in the minds for human values.
"They accommodated all that it will affect their value of the land property and also shared jobs meant for the people of this region. And with the passage of time Jammu people are finding themselves in trouble due to non-availability of jobs for them in the private and government sector, due to the hike in land cost. Not only this, they have lost their culture and traditions which was full of nationalism", Arora said.
