MARH (NAGROTA), Dec 21: Carrying forward Booth Jan Samvad Maha Abhiyaan in Jammu, Senior BJP leader Devender Singh Rana today highlighted the landmark achievements registered by the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, particularly during the past five years, saying that bringing 13.50 crore Indians above the poverty line across the country is itself a record of sorts, as per NITI Ayog data.
“This single unprecedented achievement has brought cheer in the lives of the people in Jammu and Kashmir also, as elsewhere in the country”, Rana said while addressing people in Panchayat Marh in Nagrota assembly constituency here this afternoon.
Rana said that the holistic development under the cherished mission of the Prime Minister Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas has instilled a sense of confidence among the compatriots that India is going to become third economy of the world in the next term of Yashasvi Modiji and a developed nation by 2047. Just thinking of this makes every Indian proud, he said, adding that the focused attention on Jammu and Kashmir by the Centre during the past four years, after abrogation of Article 370, has enabled the people to become part of the nation’s growth story.
He said that the BJP’s two terms since 2014 have brought a discernible turnaround in the developmental landscape, with poor and marginalized segments emerging as biggest beneficiaries. He said that the average income which was around Rs 4 lakh in 2014 has increased to Rs 13 lakh in 2023. The number of people moving from the lower-income group to the upper-income group has also increased, he added.
On other fronts, he said, Indian politics has entered into a new era of bonding with social barriers crashing and ‘nation first’ philosophy becoming the way of life and guiding force to ensure progression of all, irrespective of religion, region or caste. He also referred to the great initiatives taken over the years and implementation of various schemes and welfare programmes with missionary zeal, saying these have resulted in the growth of every section of the society. The agenda of inclusiveness has instilled hope among the people, who have been craving for marching ahead as proud Indians.
Rana said the BJP’s outreach to every single person across the country has unnerved and rattled the elements creating fear psychosis with sinister designs of creating vote banks. In this unholy pursuit they have been spreading negativity and dividing the people on the basis of religion and caste.
He also dwelt in detail various path breaking initiatives taken across Jammu and Kashmir during the past four years with an avowed objective of ensuring development, creating infrastructural facilities, strengthening utility services and giving fillip to growth as a result of massive investments. He said the investments will manifest in industrialization on a mega scale thus opening vistas of opportunities for economic empowerment and generation of jobs for professionals, technocrats, educated unemployed besides skilled and unskilled workforce. He said the Union Territory is at the threshold of a new era of peace and progress as per Naya J&K vision of the Prime Minister.
