KALAKOTE, Apr 21: Ashok Koul, general secretary (Org), J&K BJP, said that the Modi Government has fulfilled its promises made with the STs and other communities and gave a call of ‘vote for Modi, vote for development’ to the massive gathering of people belonging to the ST community during a public rally here today.
Ashok Koul, accompanied by Sanjay Baru, district Prabhari, district president, Neena Sharma, senior leader, Sardari Lal, Mandal president, Vikram, BJYM leaders, Yuvraj Singh, Wasim Kohli addressed a massive ST rally organized by former Minister, Abdul Gani Kohli at Sial Sue in Kalakote-Sunderbani Assembly constituency.
Ashok Koul, while addressing the rally, said that the Modi Government is the only Government since independence that has understood the core issues faced by the people belonging to different communities and sincerely worked to resolve them on priority. He said that the last 10 years of the Modi Government have been marked by numerous such decisions that have transformed the lives of people belonging to these communities.
He said that the Gujjar-Bakkerwal community is a nationalist community that faced the wrath of the previous governments owing to their simplicity and straight forwardness. He insisted that the previous Governments led by parties like NC, Congress and PDP used the community as a vote bank only according to their choice and harmed their interests at every step. But the Modi Government took substantial steps for their empowerment politically, socially and economically, gave them political reservations and took other steps for their welfare and asked them to vote massively in favour of the Modi Government to continue the spree.
Abdul Ghani Kohli, in his address, said that the Modi Government has changed their lives in multiple ways. He asked the ST people present in the rally to tell the others how the earlier ruling parties deliberately kept them away from the development, but now, under the Modi Government, the development has reached them in even the far-flung areas.
Sanjay Baru asked them to vote and support Jugal Kishore Sharma to support the development works in the area and also to strengthen the hands of PM Modi by ensuring the Modi Government for the third time.
Wasim Kohli presented the vote of thanks.
