| Regional autonomy to satiate aspirations; BJP betrayed Jammu: Rana | | |  Early Times Report
NAGROTA, Jan 28: National Conference Provincial President Devender Singh Rana today said that regional autonomy will satiate aspirations of the people and enable balanced development of all the regions of Jammu and Kashmir.
"A blue-print with regard to regional autonomy has been formulated nearly two decades ago with an avowed objective of empowering thecsing workers at Upper Ranjan and Lower Jandyal in the Mathwar block of Nagrota Assembly Constituency. Rana said that regional autonomy would enable larger public participation in the decision making at local levels. Such an arrangement would also help in fixing priorities in respect of developmental schemes as per local needs and strengthening planning process at micro level in true democratic spirit. This concept will, in fact, generate a sense of involvement among the people, he added.
The Provincial President said that history stands testimony to the initiatives taken by the governments led by National Conference in assuaging urges of the people and providing opportunities of progress and development to all the three regions. He said those inimical to unity of the state have all along created doubts in public mind just to keep their political enterprise flourishing. However, when it came to delivering while being in the government, they raised hands, as public welfare was never ever their priority, he added. Mr Rana said the people of the state, especially those in the Jammu region, have understood the game-plan of 'reactionary' forces, as they saw for themselves how personal agenda superseded public interest during three years of the BJP-PDP mis-governance. He said Jammu region in particular remained at the receiving end due to BJP's lackadaisical attitude towards development and implementation of various welfare schemes. |
