Addressing a press conference here today, Dr. Jitendra Singh questioned the motive behind Rahul Gandhi’s irresponsible observations made at Ramban on the eve of Assembly election during his J&K visit today and lambasted his misleading accusations against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“Rahul Gandhi’s statements are a deliberate attempt to spread false rhetoric for vested interests which find militancy convenient to continue the Congress’s dynastic politics,” Dr. Jitendra Singh asserted. He emphasised that the Congress has always been uncomfortable with the flourishing democracy in Kashmir, resorting instead to terror and militancy to limit voter turnout to 8-10 percent, ensuring their unconstitutional mandate for generation after generation.
Dr. Jitendra Singh hailed Prime Minister Modi for bringing back peace and normalcy to the region, ensuring the safety and development of the common citizens of Jammu & Kashmir. “Rahul Gandhi should thank PM Modi for the peace that now allows him to freely move around and enjoy having ‘ Kabab’ at Srinagar’s Residency Road- something that was impossible during the Congress rule,” Dr. Jitendra Singh remarked crypically.
The Union Minister also posed a critical question to the citizens of Jammu & Kashmir: “Do you want the Congress to push your youth back into the turmoil that plagued the region for three decades, or do you want to be part of the development ushered in by Prime Minister Modi and join the mainstream?”
Dr. Jitendra Singh accused the opposition of harbouring ill-intentions aimed at disturbing the peace and tranquillity of the region, depriving its citizens of their rights and development. He highlighted the “age-old tricks” of Kashmir-centric politicians, who he said carry three different speech copies—one for Srinagar, another for Jammu, and a different one for Delhi. “These tricks will no longer work. The days of fooling the voter are over,” he declared.
He further stated that the return of democracy in Jammu & Kashmir has been harmonious, with no incidents of stone-pelting—an outcome that, according to Dr. Jitendra Singh, the Congress finds difficult to digest. He accused the Congress of facilitating the import of terror from foreign soil for their own vested interests and willing to sacrifice the well-being of Kashmiris to retain political ‘power.
Concluding his remarks, Dr. Jitendra Singh reiterated that the people of Jammu & Kashmir now have a clear choice: to reject the Congress’s attempts to drag the region back into chaos or to embrace the peace and progress brought about by the BJP under Prime Minister Modi’s leadership. “The Congress can no longer manipulate the people of Kashmir; they have moved on, and so should the Congress,” Dr. Jitendra Singh stated emphatically.
