| BJP Govt creates sense of despair, hopelessness among youth: Ashok Bhagat | | | Early Times Report
MARH, May 6: Senior Congress leader Ashok Bhagat on Friday said the youth of J&K were being suffocated by repressive policies of the present Government. Interacting with youth of Marh constituency, Bhagat exhorted youth activists of the party's Youth Wing to lead efforts to bring about change and empower the youth to shape a future of dignity and peace."The looming uncertainty coupled with the confrontational approach of the BJP Government has created a sense of despair and hopelessness among the youth. The Central Government's unfortunate failure to reach out and build bridges of reconciliation and peace with our youth has created a political vacuum. In this grim atmosphere, our youth is being robbed of their right to dream of a dignified and prosperous future - which is a travesty", Bhagat said.Bhagat further said that youth feel cheated and betrayed after promises made to them in 2014 were either broken or unapologetically abandoned. "Promises were made during the elections and votes for sought for specific purposes. The same promises were then bartered without any inhibitions for personal and familial political empowerment of a few people while our hardworking, honest and sincere young men and women were let down and left to the mercy of uncertainty and turmoil. Due to this treachery, the trust deficit has been further widened to an extent where skepticism on the ground far overshadows the utility of any rhetoric the Government has to offer", Bhagat added. Appreciating the outreach programs initiated by Youth Congress, he said he would continue to wholeheartedly support the young brigade of the party in their endeavors to serve J&K and its people above and beyond any partisan motives. |
