| Article 370 abrogation gave new lease of life to Valmikis, asserts Kavinder | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Oct 28: The revocation of Article 370 from the erstwhile state has given a new lease of life to Valmiki community members who live on the land that was allocated to their ancestors when they shifted to Jammu from Punjab's Gurdaspur district on the invitation of the erstwhile State Government in 1957.
This was stated by senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister, Kavinder Gupta while addressing a gathering during Valmiki Jayanti celebrations in Valmiki Colony, Ward 20 Jammu. Rahul Kumar Corporator Ward 20, Sandeep Gupta, Rachit Khosla, Rohin Chandan, Satvir Singh, Vishal Gupta and Jang Bahadur were present.
Kavinder Gupta said that it's a dream come true for the people who earlier were victims of prejudice of successive governments that ruined the future of many under the garb of Article 370. "It is unbearable that political parties having a particular mentality hobnobbed for years together to dent the interests of aforesaid communities in the Union Territory. The BJP after decoding their evil intentions took revolutionary steps to satiate the desires of WPRs, Gorkhas, Valmiki Samaj and others so that justice prevails in J&K without any prejudice or bias", he said.
The senior BJP leader asserted that 'Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas' will now be visible on ground with the participation and share of all the sections of the society in welfare schemes and developmental projects. He asserted that it is indeed good development that the abrogation of Art 370 has brought smiles on the faces of the people of the State, barring a few, who used to consider themselves as the 'masters' and had no concern for common citizens but always focused on self interests.
Kavinder Gupta also extended warm greetings to the people on the auspicious occasion of Valmiki Jayanti, a day of great significance in our cultural and historical heritage. He emphasized the enduring relevance of Maharishi Valmiki's teachings and his profound impact on society.
The senior BJP leader highlighted the timeless wisdom of Maharishi Valmiki, whose views on social equality and goodwill continue to serve as a guiding light for our society. He noted that Valmiki's teachings transcended time and were not bound by the limitations of any particular era. Instead, they remain a source of inspiration and wisdom that resonate with contemporary society as much as they did in ancient times.
Kavinder underlined the importance of social equality, a concept that Valmiki championed and which remains integral to our nation's fabric. Valmiki's teachings have been instrumental in promoting harmony and inclusivity, transcending caste and class divisions. |
