Excelsior Correspondent
SRINAGAR, June 15: Pradesh Congress  chief GA Mir today said that BJP and PDP are creating regional imbalance to benefit themselves and gain political mileage out of it, adding Congress being a unifying force won’t allow them to play with the sentiments of people.
“Congress alone can defeat forces which are hell bent upon to divide the people of Jammu and Kashmir on religion or regional lines, as party is committed for equitable development of all the three regions of State”, JKPCC Chief said while addressing a day long convention at Ganderbal.
Recalling the historic steps taken by Congress led UPA-I and UPA-II with regard to the welfare and development of the J&K State and people, he said that the developmental projects started during UPA rule should be eye opener for all, particularly for Modi led Government at Centre, which has let down the people of Jammu and Kashmir in all respects.
Lashing out at Central and State Governments for their failure and lack of concern toward the plight of the people, Mir said that no steps has been taken by the Centre to compensate flood affected people while unemployment has risen considerably due to the wrong policies of PDP-BJP coalition.
JKPCC Chief urged the Government to display some seriousness and take immediate measures for rehabilitating flood affected people in Kashmir and Jammu also.
Expressing confidence that Congress Party in the State is getting more stronger, MLC and vice-president, JKPCC, GN Monga and former Minister, Taj Mohi-ud-Din said that party is committed to work for well being and development of the people. They assured the convention that the party would ensure the development of Ganderbal District and other districts, on priority.
