It (NC) always undermined the development of Jammu region, major chunk of Government funds were diverted to Kashmir region, never paid any attention for the development of this region, major portion of employment also snatched, Jammu youth never got fair deal, no big health institution was promoted, horticulture, floriculture, tourism which are the major sectors for mainstay of economy faced total neglect, thus economic activities remained always low.
“NC and Congress have also lost their ground in Kashmir valley as people have fed up from their mis-rule and corrupt practices for over seven decades and now they want change and these parties will vanish from the Kashmir map and a new era of peace and holistic development will prevail in Valley after the elections,” he said.
“In order to ensure continued peace, progress and economic development of Jammu & Kashmir, people must support the BJP and elect the next Government with full majority,” he said and urged BJP workers to move from door to door to make people aware of the “divisive agenda” of the NC, PDP and Congress, inform about the programmes and policies of the BJP Government in the Centre and future roadmap of the BJP for the Jammu region as mentioned in the Sankalapa Patra of the party.
