UDHAMPUR, Aug 2: A crucial meeting of the Women Wing of Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) District Udhampur Urban under the Chairperson of Sunita Mehra was held in Udhampur. Bimla Luthra, State Vice President of JKNC and former MLA, was the chief guest.
The meeting attended by a large number of women party workers and leaders, focused on the significant role women are expected to play in the upcoming Assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir.
Sunita Mehra, District President Udhampur of JKNC Women Wing, commenced the meeting by highlighting the difficulties faced by women under the current government, emphasizing the dire lack of healthcare facilities in rural and remote areas, particularly the non-availability of women doctors. She expressed concerns over the absence of basic amenities and the lack of opportunities for women entrepreneurs. She pointed out that regions such as Dudu, Basantgarh, Pancheri, and other remote areas of Udhampur district are severely deprived of development.
Addressing the party workers, Bimla Luthra expressed deep anguish over the government's neglect of these far-flung areas on the development front. She criticized the current administration for failing to address these critical issues and for its overall neglect of the developmental needs of the region. She noted the persistent shortage of ration and the poor condition of roads, especially the crucial stretch from Ram Nagar to Dudu Basantgarh.
Reflecting on the National Conference's past governance, the senior NC leader highlighted the key initiatives and significant progress made during their regime in the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir. She recalled the equitable development policies and the numerous welfare schemes that had been implemented to uplift the socio-economic status of the people, particularly women.

"Women have always been the backbone of our society, and their active involvement in the electoral process is crucial for bringing about the much-needed change. The National Conference is committed to ensuring that women's voices are heard and their issues addressed," she stated.
