JAMMU, June 10: Inaugurating week long celebrations of 16th Foundation Day of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) the State NCP President and Former Minister Thakur Randhir Singh said NCP under the dynamic leadership of Sharad Pawar has grown considerably during the past 15 years and its agenda of consolidating secular, nationalist and progressive forces is catching up fast across the country. Mr Singh said keeping its separate identity intact, the party would continue to work for strengthening nationalist and secular forces and will oppose communal and castiest forces in the country.
The State NCP demands the fresh Delimitation Commission from Government of India to do justice to the regions of Jammu & Ladakh who are clamoring for the same for last so many years.
Mr Singh further said that all the successive Governments in Jammu & Kashmir have “forsaken the rights of Jammu and Ladakh regions and of the refugees of 1947,1962 , 1965 and 1971 and Kashmiri migrants who left their homes and hearths and also the refugees of West Pakistan who are living in the worst conditions after the Independence in Jammu & Kashmir” . The working committee passed a resolution and demanded strengthening the Right to Information Act. Thakur said previous State coalition has failed to suitably amend and enforce the Right to information Act because it has more to hide than to reveal.
NCP demanded enforcement of Right to Information Act as passed by the Parliament and declaration of Jammu & Kashmir a Herbal State like Chattisgarh , Uttrakhand where the growers are being provided 20% subsidy by the National Horticulture Board, Govt. of India and 20% matching grant from the Local Govt.
