Excelsior Correspondent

JAMMU, Oct 4: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State spokesperson, former Minister & MLA Priya Sethi today said those claiming to be fighting for the Swabhiman (Honour) are trying to divide the State on the regional, communal and caste basis where as Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in true sense is working to upkeep the dignity, honour and respect of people of all three regions of the State. It’s towards this end that BJP gave this State an accountable and transparent Government which was sensitive to people’s issues.
On the development front, Ladakh, Kashmir and Jammu besides its Urban and Suburban areas are getting their due share because of the Central and State sponsored schemes which are getting implemented here without any pilferage.
This is for the first time that such a clean and transparent with Government ensured that people oriented schemes reach the last beneficiary, she said.
During campaigning in favour of BJP candidates in different wards of Jammu East from day one, Priya Sethi said those politicians who have lost their ground and are trying to gain some foothold by exploiting the sentiments of people are out to sabotage ongoing developmental processes.
She said it is the B J P which is working towards strengthening Swabhiman (Honour) of not Dogras only  but also of Kashmiris, Ladakhis, Paharis, Gujjars, Bakerwals and all other irrespective of their cast, creed, region or religion.
This is the reason BJP is making inroads in Kashmir, Kargil and other areas. This is people’s faith in BJP and it’s leadership and because of policies of party that more and more people are joining BJP and strengthening it. ‘Unlike Congress, NC or PDP we don’t encourage dynastic rules and neither do we do politics of hatred and divide’, She added.
Former Minister informed that Central Government schemes especially those aimed at empowering women are all meant to give this section of the society and honorable life, be it Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, Jan Dhan Yojana or free distribution of gas connections they are all meant to make women powerful and end their miseries which they were facing till date.
