JAMMU, Mar 16: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee has voiced its strong resentment over the privatization moves of the BJP Govt and shared the concern of the agitating employees of Public Sector Banks, who are on two days strike.
Expressing full support to the agitating bank employees protesting against the privation of PS Banks and LIC by the Modi Govt, JKPCC chief spokesperson, Ravinder Sharma strongly criticized the Centre Govt for resorting to such anti-people moves. He said that Modi Govt is on a spree of privatization of all major sectors and services which has very dangerous consequences for the people and the country.
The party said that these moves will hand over the assets and control of the entire services to the private players/big industrialists thus reducing the role and control of Govt in the delivery to the people, which is totally against the concept of democracy. This would promote capitalism and monopoly and control of rich and capitalists over the economic activities of the country. He said that privation of PS Banks and LIC would amount to giving the control of public deposits into the hands of private players with great concern about the use and safety of public money.
The poor and common people will find it difficult to get the easy loans for their various activities and business. The general public must understand the wrong moves of the Modi Govt and rise against such policies and programmes of the BJP and put pressure on the Govt to stop privatization of the entire profit earning services in the country lest it will be too late.
He said that slogans of Prime Minister Narendra Modi “Desh Nahin Bikne Doonga, Desh Kahin Jukney Doonga” was a deception and totally contrary to this is happening as everything worth value and all profitable sectors and services are being sold to the private capitalists, which should open the eyes of ‘ Andh Bhakats’ who mislead the people on false slogans and propagandas in favour of BJP and against the Congress party.
He said BJP especially Modi is following pro-rich and pro-capitalist policies, thus crushing the common man and elimination of poor man.
