JAMMU, Oct 20: JKPCC working president, Raman Bhalla today claimed that priority of BJP regime was never to empower people by strengthening democratic institutions but those at the helm of affairs wanted to accomplish their nefarious designs by controlling such institutions through undemocratic means.
While addressing Corporators of the party during meeting at PCC headquarters here Bhalla, who was flanked by senior members-Ravinder Sharma, Yogesh Sawhney, Manmohan Singh and others termed the promises made by BJP Government as “mere bluffs”. He said that people of J&K have been fed up with the “sheer opportunism” of BJP.
Bhalla appealed people from different walks of life, particularly youth to become part of the party. He said Congress offers a platform for all well meaning peoples to encourage them and play their role in party’s vision of political resolution and good governance. He said Congress by way of its pro-people policies is the only viable regional alternative for the people of J&K. He said BJP Government failed to do anything good for the people of J&K except strengthening the instrument of oppression to unleash terror on them.
Congress leader said that BJP’s unilateral decisions have added to the long prevailing political instability and alienation in the region besides violating the spirit of federalism in the country. The party rank and file in J&K, Bhalla said, stands behind the Party in its ongoing efforts for the protection of the identity of Jammu and Kashmir. “We will not allow BJP and its B teams to erode our political and cultural identity. Nothing can rescue BJP and its local proxies. People will teach them a lesson in the elections, whenever they are held. People across JK have made it a point to register as voters and punish BJP and its B teams democratically through ballot,” he added.
Calling the Delimitation Commission report travesty of the principle of one man one vote, Bhalla said, people of J&K will defeat the sinister objectives of BJP. “Having failed to change the ground realities through biased delimitation, BJP and its B teams are trying to grab power through the back door,” he added.
Bhalla regretted that the delivery on the promises had been in opposite proportion to the expression of such high pitched slogans. He claimed that BJP has miserably lost the ground.
Corporators- Dwarka Choudhary, Pritam Singh, Bhanu Mahajan, Inderjeet Kour, Sonika Sharma, Rajinder Janwal, Rittu Choudhary, Mohin Din, Amrit Bali, Jatin Vashisht, Sanjeev Panda beside others were present on the occasion.
