KATHUA, Jan 10: Former Member Parliament and president Dogra Swabhimaan Sangthan (DSS) Ch Lal Singh today alleged that successive Governments in the State and the Centre always ignored the aspirations of Jammu people.
While addressing a gathering at Billawar today, Ch Lal Singh said it is very unfortunate that the people of Jammu can not expect even CBI inquiry, what to talk of the jobs and other benefits. He said the people of Jammu are struggling for the last year for a simple demand of CBI and the Government has failed to respect their sentiments.
Former MP alleged that the successive Governments both in the State and at the Centre, always treated the people of Jammu as a simple vote bank and never bothered about the legitimate issues of Dogras and always ignored their aspirations.
He pointed out that the youth of Jammu are facing unemployment and they are moving to other states for jobs. The potential of the natural resources is not used and the power is purchased from the other States. The policy of successive Governments is totally wrong as the house hold resources are under-utilized and the people here are looking for the resources from other states.
Lal Singh also said the youth of Jammu are exploited by the Kashmir centered parties by giving maximum wine shops in Jammu and nil to Kashmir and appealed to youth to remain away from the menace of alcohol and drugs.
While addressing the gathering, Dr Hari Dutt Shishu appealed to all people to support the cause of the development of Jammu.
Meanwhile, the leaders of the various social organizations and deputation led by Col J P Singh, Chairman Ex-servicemen wing, Kissan Cell led by KP Singh, Sports Cell led by Chairman Ch Prem Singh, Art and culture Cell by Jackson and a deputation of locals from Ramban led by Piara Singh met the former MP at his Gandinagar office and extended full support to the Sangathan.
