VIJAYPUR, Dec 9: State senior vice president, National Conference (NC), Surjeet Singh Slathia today said that BJP has lost these elections the day they announced mandates as those in the fray have no connect with the people or the ground realities.
“The current elections are about seeking redressal to local issues by the Government in the State and this can be achieved only be electing representatives who are connected with the ground”, Slathia, who is National Conference candidate from Vijaypur, said while addressing several election meetings in the constituency.
He said “The fact that they are banking upon Narendra Modi speaks about their own hollowness and standing on ground”, he said adding that frustration is looming large on them about the prospect of losing as they find no response from the electorate.
Slathia said the people want development, employment and all the basic services which can make their living comfortable. “They cannot be fed with false promises and emotive slogans”, he said adding that the people are politically sagacious enough and know that BJP has no prospect of forming a Government in Jammu and Kashmir.
“Those seeking votes on a particular name were in fact exposing their own worth and standing among the people”, he said, adding that the Prime Minister Narendra Modi has failed in delivering even after seven months of BJP Government in New Delhi.
Referring to initiatives taken during the past several years in changing the developmental landscape of Vijaypur constituency, Slathia said no stone has been left unturned to upgrade infrastructure, improve utility services and to make administration responsive to needs of the people.
“My work as your humble representative was before you and you were the best judges to compare it with dubious promises being made by opponents”, he said and lauded the people for preferring development over rhetoric.
