Jammu | May 17

The Panthers Party, which has decided to contest more that 50 seats in the ensuing Assembly election in the state, has started training party workers in projecting the failures of the ruling coalition during the pre-poll campaign.
Stating this the leader of the Panthers Party in the state Assembly, Harsh Dev Singh, today said “we want to equip our party workers with facts and figures which could help them in explaining to the voters various omissions and commissions on the part of the Congress led Government in Jammu and Kashmir during the last over five and a half years.”
In reply to a question he said he had taken on his shoulders the responsibility of equipping Panthers Party workers with details of the poor performance of the state Government.
While replying to another question he said that the Panthers poll manifesto would lay emphasis on removing regional imbalances and discrimination. In this context he said that apart from major share in Government services being enjoyed by people in Kashmir even in the devolution of development funds, the Valley has been getting a lion’s share during the last over 40 years.
He said that if one visits the employment exchanges one finds to be convinced that the level of unemployment in the Jammu region was much higher than in the valley.
Harsh Dev Singh said that there was need for equal distribution of funds and the Jammuites deserved bigger share in the Government jobs. He said during the last 50 years the successive Valley centric State Governments had given a raw deal to the Jammu region as far as the number of Assembly constituencies was concerned. He said on the basis of population and geographical area, the Jammu region should have at least 47 Assembly constituencies.
He stated that Pour pre-poll campaign would focus peoples’ attention towards these issues so that the valley centric organizations drew a blank from the region.”
