| BJP plundering people, UT admin an utter failure: Gurmeet Singh | | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 8: Gurmeet Singh Distt. General Secretary Congress & President Beopar Mandal appealed to the people of J&K to reject the pro-rich and anti Youth, Anti farmers, Anti corona warriors health workers, and Anti poor policies of BJP for peace and prosperity in the region.
As per the handout, addressing largely attended a meeting of Block, Ward and Mohalla present Congress Committee said the enthusiasm amongst people reflects the anti-BJP mood of the people who are fed up with the hollow slogan and lack of development in the areas.
Gurmeet Singh Distt. General Secretary Congress & President Beopar Mandal cornered the BJP government over various issues. He slammed the BJP government for using public money for polishing their own image through massive advertisements.
The fact is that the BJP government has failed to deliver to the people on all fronts and would be wiped out of J&K whenever assembly elections take place here. He said BJP had assured to protect the land and jobs of the local Youth but has betrayed the huge mandate and opened up the sale of land and jobs to outsiders while in neighboring Himachal Pradesh, no outsiders can purchase land. He said Congress will create awareness among the general public about the failures of the government and the drawbacks of not having the status of being a state.
He said that Jammu has witnessed huge setbacks due to the revocation of statehood by the BJP Government including the seizing of jobs, land, and the suppression of political and civil rights.
The economy has also suffered immensely due to the government’s irrational policies and decisions. Therefore it is high time that the Centre keeps its promise of giving back statehood so that people can exercise their political rights by choosing a democratic government. The Centre should accept the demand for restoration of statehood to J-K in the interest of the Constitution and democracy, he stated.
Launching a scathing attack on the government, Gurmeet Singh Distt. General Sectary further added that without a dedicated government elected by the people Jammu and its people are being neglected and overlooked.
From national issues like skyrocketing fuel and food prices and the pandemic that went out of control to regional issues specific to Jammu including economic exploitation in the name of toll plazas, taxes, and ending of Darbar move, the people have had to deal with a lot. There is zero focus on development, the Infrastructure is dying out, and people are being denied basic civic amenities like power and water.
So, there is an urgent need for decentralization of power so that a leadership that is more privy to the issues of the region can address them and resolve them. He added that the Congress party will keep fighting for statehood and for the best interests of the people of J&K until it is done.
Besides Gurmeet Singh, the following Prominent members were presents Block President Anand Gandotra, President Ward no. 3, Hardavinder Singh, President Ward no. 15, Raj Kumar Sodhi, Manohar Joshi, Seema Devi, Suman Gupta, Ranjit Kumar, Ashok Kumar, Jyoti Devi, Asha Kumari, Roshni Devi, Lucky Mehra, Abhi Thakur, Imran Jaan, Sahil Mahajan, Vijay Sharma,Sandeep Arora, Boby Sodhi, Likhit Kumar, Yash Sharma, Amarpreet Singh, Apu Singh, and besides others. |
