JAMMU, Sept 29: Reiterating his commitment to develop Jammu North constituency on modern lines, senior BJP leader and party candidate, Sham Lal Sharma today stated that he will serve the people of this constituency as a vigilant watchman (Chowkidar) on 24×7 basis.
Addressing a public gathering, Sham said, “Jammu North constituency has special significance as its some areas fall in urban belt, some in semi-urban and rural areas. All areas have their own needs and issues, which will be taken care of with the close coordination of concerned people.”
He said that it is the endeavor of BJP to ensure peace, security, holistic development and to restore the honor of Dogra culture and its rich heritage that was undermined by the Kashmir centric polity for over seven decades.
Sham said that immediately after the results of elections, he will formulate a comprehensible roadmap with the coordination of all stakeholders and fix the priority accordingly. The areas which he has already identified and will receive focused attention included, up-gradation of road connectivity (mains and links) with overcoming the problem of frequent traffic jams, uninterrupted power and water supply, developing sports infrastructure to engage the youth in various sports activities, up-gradation of health facilities and overall face-lifting of public parks and colonies.
He urged the people to use their utmost wisdom, while exercising their right of franchise and elect the leaders of credibility who can protect their futures and ensure peace, stability and prosperity.
“It’s only BJP that can bring lasting peace and prosperity in Jammu Kashmir with the power of a double engine, and people must not lose this golden opportunity. Electing BJP means electing Dogra Hindu Chief Minister, securing the bright future of the coming generations and protecting the honor and glory of Dogras,” he added.
Others who addressed the gathering included Mandal Presidents Ravish Singh, Suresh Khajuria, Rajesh Singh, Corporators Surinder Sharma, Sunita Gupta and Rani Devi.
