JAMMU, Nov 4: National Democratic Party India (NDPI) president, Rajesh Gupta today castigated BJP over false promises of development, employment, progress and prosperity in the region.
He also took a dig at Farooq Abdullah’s statement in which he said that Omar Abdullah will not contest election till J&K statehood restoration. “People of J&K have already experienced the taste of inefficient Omar administration and if we get back the statehood even then we don’t need such a defunct man as Chief Minister again in J&K,” he alleged.
Gupta said the voters were swayed by pro-Jammu rhetoric and several glamorous slogans given by the saffron leadership to woo the masses. The gullibility of the Dogras was exploited to the full to attain the high seats of power but did nothing for the Jammuities, he said.
“Not only that, the people of the region continued to vote heavily in favour of BJP under the hope that BJP leadership would fulfill its promises sooner than later. The situation as of now has invariably grown from bad to worse under Central BJP dispensation with the Jammu region having been deprived of even its nominal share in the recent past,” said Gupta.
This was stated by him while addressing the Party workers at Jammu, wherein leaders including Umesh Manhas, Kuljeet Singh, Tilakraj, Rajiv Luthra and others were present.
