JAMMU, July 23: Remembering Kuldeep Verma, a martyr of 2008 Amarnath land agitation, on his Balidan Divas, a programme was organized by BJP District Jammu West at party office, Kachi Chawni.
Former State President BJP and EX Minister Sat Sharma (CA) was the main speaker on the occasion, which was also addressed by Shilpi Verma (widow of martyr Kuldeep Verma), Ramesh Arora (Ex MLC), Shailja Gupta, Chander Mohan Sharma & Keshav Chopra. District General Secretary Karan Sharma conducted the proceedings and vote of thanks was given by General Secretary Rajesh Gupta.
Sat Sharma paying tributes to the martyr Kuldeep Verma recalled a chain of events during the Amarnath Yatra land agitation. He said that since long, the region of Jammu has suffered due to the vicious campaign and policies that were set in motion by Sheikh Abdullah and others and as a result Jammu had to struggle hard for every single thing. He said that today due to all the sacrifices that have been made by these great men like Kuldeep Verma, efforts bore the fruit on the fateful day of 5th August 2019 when the Articles 370 and 35 (A) were abrogated.
Shilpi Verma and Ramesh Arora said that the agitation during 2008 was based on strong sentiments of common masses. They said that the then regime tried to forcefully suppress the agitation by the patriotic people and with the ever increasing atrocities by the then government and the administration, many precious lives were lost.
Shailja and Chander Mohan said that Kuldeep Verma who always lifted the spirits of people with his poetry sacrificed his life at such a crucial time that the agitation at once was beyond the control of the administration and dictators had to lay their arms in front of masses.
The program was also attended by State leaders, District office bearers and Mandal office bearers. |
