JAMMU, Dec 20: Senior Congress leader, Raman Bhalla on Friday stressed on the need for preserving the ‘idea of India’ by promoting and strengthening its inclusive ethos.
Addressing a gathering at Narwal Bala Panchayat, Bhalla said Congress has shown the way during most testing times of history by upholding the spirit of communal harmony, which continues to remain its political philosophy.
On the overall political situation in J&K, he said change can be brought about by Congress only.
The Congress leader urged upon the administration for stepping up development and strengthening of grievance redressal mechanism, as people were suffering on account of various services.
He said that BJP has lost credibility as also moral authority to seek votes again by pretending ‘messiahs of Jammu’ as it has failed in keeping up the commitments which they trampled hugely by ditching the people and compromising their aspirations.
Attacking the NDA Government at Centre, Bhalla said that since the change of guard happened in New Delhi, the prices of essential commodities have increased manifolds.
“Most of the projects which were visualized under BJP rule did not get started and those which started did not met their end in Jammu,” he maintained.
Prominent among those present on the occasion were Jatinder Chib, BCC President; Ajaz Choudhary, J&K Vice President Youth Congress; Sarpanch Sabia Choudhary, Gagan Bral, Harvinder Kour, Parasram, Kamla Dev, Anju Sharma, Paro Devi, Bholla Ram, Parvat, Raj Kumar and others.
