SAMBA, Nov 18: Former Minister and Pradesh BJP vice president Surjeet Singh Slathia today said that in pursuit of overall progress in Jammu and Kashmir, efforts have been redoubled after the abrogation of Article 370 to ensure inclusive development in all the regions and sub-regions of the Union Territory without any discrimination or favouritism, as had been the norm for decades.
“BJP’s Mission J&K has been to ensure holistic development of all the areas with thrust on disadvantageous and remote pocket so that no region or segment of society feels left behind”, Slathia said while addressing booth level workers and residents of ward numbers 6, 8 and 9 of the Samba town under the party’s “Booth Jan Samvad” Programme.
Referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mission of ensuring that every citizen of J&K benefits from the fruits of development, Slathia said this has gained momentum with the active participation of the people. The development is inclusive, embracing all sections of society by giving due regard to their needs and urges, regardless of the region, religion, caste or ethnicity they belong, he added.
Reiterating that the BJP is committed to creating opportunities that empower every citizen to contribute meaningfully in the progress of J&K, Slathia called for working together to build a society where every person, regardless of gender, caste, creed, or socio-economic status, has an equal chance to thrive.
“Jan Seva is essence of the BJP, which has been in service of the people since its inception”, Slathia said, hoping the people will continue to strengthen the party to meet the challenges facing J&K with courage and determination.
Prominent among those present on the occasion included president BJP Samba Kashmira Singh, vice president BJP Samba Vijay Singh, Mohan Lal Sharma, Sanjeev Kumar Mandal president Samba, Ankush Mahajan Chairman MNC Samba, Pawan Kohli Vice Chairman MNC Samba, Rajni Sambyal Corporator, Narinder Singh, Vikas Kumar, Raghubir Singh and Rajeshwar Singh.
