BISHNAH, Mar 12: Senior Congress leader, Mohinder Bhardwaj has said that the sensitive J&K State is facing the darkest period of its history with vertically split regions and society, on religion and caste lines, facing the ignominy of poor governance and utter neglect that flows from the so called strong BJP-led Government at the Centre to its participated State Government.
Addressing a gathering of people of this village and adjoining areas near the International Border, he said the pitiable condition of border villages and their inhabitants is an index of what the BJP and its run Governments have done to the people and the country. Even after four years of Narendra Modi Government at the Centre and three years of BJP-PDP dispensation in J&K, the people of borders areas are yet to receive the much promised relief measures that included inhabitations in safe zones and proper education and health facilities for them during the days of unprovoked Pakistan firing.
Bhardwaj lambasted Modi and State BJP leaders for spreading lies in the name of nationalism and patriotism. Apart from taking the enemy head-on patriotism and nationalism also means that the saffron party and its run Governments should truly serve the people in distress and not make false promises to them, which has become order of the day.
“In raising passions through invoking feelings of patriotism has become a handy tool in the hands of BJP leaders to divert attention from their Governments’ failure on all fronts including dealing with external dangers,” he observed.
Bhardwaj rued that despite tall claims of BJP Ministers and legislators, the borders areas are suffering due to lack of infrastructural development. The roads and irrigation canal network are in a shocking condition with no new works taking place.
