JAMMU, Aug 18: In a bid to carry the BJP’s ongoing week-long special membership drive to the remotest corners of the State, the BJP National Executive Member & J&K State Chief Spokesperson Dr. Jitendra Singh, who is also District Prabhari (Incharge) for Reasi, today visited village Netar in Bhamla area located at the extreme periphery of district Reasi to lead the party activists for the same .
Addressing the party workers, Dr. Jitendra Singh said that BJP is the natural choice and political option preferred by nationalist citizens of India and the proof of this was evident in the fact that an exceptionally large number of ex-servicemen living in this area had joined the Party in spite of several temptations and bribes offered by the coalition ruling parties.
He said BJP is not a mere political party but a school of thought which is nationalistic, patriotic and sacrificing, and this is the reason that an ex-serviceman after having served the motherland half of his life, finds BJP a natural option for himself after retirement from defence services.
Dr. Jitendra Singh said that while the BJP Mandal and district office bearers from the region will take up with the administration some of the general demands like upgradation of the village school to Higher Secondary level, improvement in power supply and drinking water facility, the village leaders will also have to learn to protest against the Ministers from the region who got elected with their vote and then chose to discriminate against their own people simply in order to please their Kashmir-centric masters by whose goodwill they had become Ministers.
Dr. Jitendra Singh said that the Party had decided a target of over twenty thousand new members from District Reasi and to achieve this, District President Kabla Singh, Mandal President Sheel Mangotra and district membership incharge Chain Singh had been working day and night. He said the membership week being observed from 17 to 24 August also offered an opportunity for mass contact with people.
Pandit Hem Raj, Master Sunder, Capt.(retd) Daya Ram and Thakur Baldev Singh also spoke on the occasion while those present included Capt. Chaman Lal, Capt. Kher Singh, Karnail Singh, Narsingh Dayal, Lal Singh and others.
