JAMMU, Dec 27: Saying that National Conference will fight tooth and nail the elements inimical to singular entity and inclusiveness of the State, party general secretary Ali Mohd Sagar today exuded confidence that politically sagacious people of the three regions will isolate those trying to divide them on religious and regional basis.
“The State is at the cross roads of its history with PDP-BJP dispensation unleashing canards against those believing in inclusiveness and subjecting people to unprecedented mis-governance”, Sagar said while addressing senior party functionaries, including district presidents and secretaries of the Jammu region at party office here this afternoon.
The NC leader said that the three regions of the State have distinct urges and aspirations which had to be preserved and respected. “This is what National Conference believes and endeavours to maintain by fighting forces, having no regard for this unique feature of the State”, he said, adding that the people of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh were feeling betrayed due to anti-poor and anti-youth policies of the present dispensation.
Sagar exhorted the cadre to gear up for meeting the challenges confronted to the State and steering it out of the morass. He said development has taken nose dive and administrative paralysis was adding up to the miseries of the people, who are suffering on account due to rising prices, poor utility services and lack of accountability among those governing the State. He further said that division in the society is being perpetrated to further the interests of those who are thriving on divide and rule.
Provincial President Devender Singh Rana asked the cadre to close their ranks and gear up for meeting the challenges unleashed by the PDP-BJP Government. Rana accused the coalition dispensation of pushing Jammu and Kashmir to backwards by putting a halt to the developmental initiatives taken by the previous Omar Abdullah led Government.
Blaming the BJP for playing politics of divide and sowing seeds of mistrust, Rana cautioned against testing the spirit of inclusiveness of the people, saying those believing in unity in diversity will foil all their machinations. He referred to exploitive politics being pursued by the BJP and said as long the people will remain united, nobody can weaken their resolve.
Those present in the meeting included Rattan Lal Gupta and Th. Kashmir Singh State vice presidents, Sheikh Bashir Ahmed – Provincial secretary, Dr Kamal Arora – MLA, Dharamveer Singh Jamwal, Sajjad Shaheen, Romy Khajuria, Mohinder Gupta, Sunil Verma, Shafayat Ahmed Khan, Bushan Uppal, Bagh Hussain Rathore, Ajaz Jan Provincial president Youth Wing Jammu, Shamshad Shan District president Gool- Gulabgarh, Ajeer Kumar Sharma, KK Bakshi, Bushan Lal Bhat ( Minority Cell), Satwant Kour Dogra -Provincial president Women Wing, MK Yogi president Minority Cell, Anil Dhar and others.
