Excelsior Correspondent
SAMBA, Apr 4: People’s Democratic Party (PDP) candidate for Jammu-Poonch Lok Sabha seat Yash Pal Sharma today exhorted the people to teach coalition candidates a lesson for deceptive policies of the Government headed by Omar Abdullah.
Addressing series of public meetings in Samba during road show, Sharma said that during the nearly six years, Omar Abdullah Government has done nothing to solve problems of the masses.
“Instead of solving problems of the people this regime has been indulged into deceptive tactics so it is high time to teach coalition a lesson in elections”, Sharma said and exhorted the people that use their votes as a weapon to give a befitting reply to the Coalition Government for its deceitful tactics.
Congress is equally responsible for prevailing situation in the State, he said.
He flayed National Conference led coalition regime for its failure to implement the Centrally sponsored schemes and properly utilize the funds sanctioned by the Centre.
Sharma regretted that during the last nearly six years most the Centrally sponsored schemes have been either stopped or lying defunct due to the failure of the coalition regime.
Ridiculing State Government for making tall claims of development, Sharma said that instead of indulging into hollow slogans the Government should concentrate on grounds.
He said that people were fed up with the repeated assurances of the Government and they would come to streets against such hollow slogans of the authorities.
Sharma regretted that miseries of the common masses have been increased manifold after formation of Congress-National Conference regime in the State because this dispensation was non serious in mitigating woes of the people.
Pawan Dev Singh, RS Jamwal, Bhanu Partap Singh, Anita Devi, Sukhdev Singh Tinko, Sunny Sangral, Parveen Singh Katal, Choudhary Javed, Advocate Nitin, Shashi Pal besides many other addressed the meetings.
