JAMMU, Apr 5: Former Minister and Congress candidate from Jammu-Poonch parliamentary seat, Raman Bhalla today said that the people are waiting eagerly to teach a lesson to the BJP for allegedly failing to fulfill the promises made before coming to power at the Centre and in J&K.
Bhalla said this while addressing a series of election meetings in RS Pura, Gandhi Nagar and Akhnoor constituencies. He said that people should elect those who will ensure that their voice is heard in the Parliament of India. “People of the State want a credible voice to represent their aspirations in the topmost house of the country and Congress is the only credible voice of all the regions of J&K,” he added.
“The people of J&K remember BJP for unleashing countless miseries on the State and its people. People still recount the numerous instances of BJP and its leaders committed from time to time. The treacherous role played by the BJP and its leadership is an open secret,” he said, adding, now the responsibility rests on people to choose between forces inimical to State’s integrity and those who have lent immense sacrifices for the protection of the State’s communal harmony and brotherhood.
“Now it is up to people to discern between the ones who stand for their rights and who trampled them. However, people have made it a point to show such forces as are inimical to State they’re the right to place. In the end, it is the people whose resolve will prevail,” he said. Every vote matters and every vote should be polled in favour of Congress, for ours is the only party that has never compromised with regard to equitable development of three regions of State.
Prominent among those who accompanied Bhalla include Ex-MP Madan Lal Sharma, Satish Sharna, Laxmi Dutta, Badri Nath, Ramesh Matton, Ravinder Singh and others.
