KALAKOTE, Aug 22: Local MLA and Minister for Animal, Sheep Husbandry and Fisheries, Abdul Ghani Kohli today said that people of all religions and regions of J&K have reposed their trust in the policies of Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP).
Addressing several public rallies in Teryath, Songhari and Daggal Halal during a tour of his constituency, he threw light on various development schemes launched by Modi Government at Centre and PDP-BJP Coalition Government in the State.
During his tour’s last leg in Daggal Halal (a remotest area), the Minister announced blacktopping of Metka-Daggal Halal road over 25 kilometer stretch and also assured to construct a new road that will connect the area with Kotranka block.

The MLA also issued Rs 1.5 lakh from his Constituency Development Fund (CDF) for construction of cremation ground at Bandari in Metka.
