AKHNOOR, May 8: JKPCC working president, Raman Bhalla claimed that people of all sections are completely fed up with the poor performance of BJP led Government as there is uncontrolled price rise, record unemployment in J&K, along with anti-employees, anti-traders, anti-farmers and anti-people policies of BJP.
He was addressing a public meeting at Maira Mandrian near here today organized by Congress leader, Satish Sharma.
Speaking on the occasion, Bhalla said that Congress had been at the forefront to oppose the anti-people policies imposed through backdoor by bureaucrats as there is no elected Government in J&K for the past three and half years.
“People have no representation or forum to raise their voice against anti-people policies of BJP,” he said adding that having failed to give employment to educated unemployed youth, the Centre and the J&K administration are finding faults in the past governments.
Bhalla claimed that people of all sections have turned against BJP that is why elections are being delayed in fear of losing.
“Congress party stands for change and people will throw out BJP in next assembly elections,” he maintained asking workers to visit every area of the Constituency to convey Congress party’s agenda of development, peace and communal harmony.
“BJP and its proxies in J&K will try to polarize the situation by fanning passions because they have nothing to offer in terms of development and stability,” Bhalla maintained adding that BJP befooled PoJK refugees and sanctioned only a meager amount of Rs. 5.5 lakh per family against Rs. 30 lakh per family as recommended by the Congress Government.
He said that that Congress shall fully support the struggle of refugees of PoJK and Chhamb for their due rights.
He also extended support to the people for their demand that Akhnoor should be declared as a separate District.
Kuldeep Verma, Ex MoS; Praveen Kumar, BDC Chairman; Jaswant Singh, Gian Chand, Sham Lal, Bachan Singh, Ashok Kumar, Bodh Raj, Madan Lal, Om Prakash, Kuldeep Sharma, Darshan Kumar and others were also present on the occasion.
