He said in spite of large amount of funds pumped in the State by the Centre over 70 years there is no development visible any where. Now after abrogation of Article 370 from the J&K the State will observe tremendous development in each corner and will emerge as bright State in the nation.

He said that it is none other than Modi Government which made it possible. He appraised the benefits of Abrogation of Article 370 among the masses, termed it a historic and bold decision.
Addressing the gathering Jugal Kishore Sharma MP said that it is the time to rejoice and feel the development which will lead the State to great heights.
