JAMMU, Jan 1: Announcing to intensify the ongoing movement through “Sanatan Jagran Yatra” and Signature Campaign, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Sangharsh Samiti today asked BJP to clear its stand over the issue.
Core Committee of the Sangharsh Samiti, which met here today at Geeta Bhawan, was jointly chaired by the Samiti’s President, Colonel Sukhvir Singh Mankotia, and the President of Shri Sanatan Dharam Sabha, Parshotam Dadhichi.
It was unanimously decided in the meeting that formal letters would be written to all MLAs of Jammu, clearly warning them to completely boycott the official programs of the Lieutenant Governor (LG). Additionally, the committee will soon invite the Leader of the Opposition (LoP), Sunil Sharma, to Geeta Bhawan so that he may publicly clarify his and his party’s stand on this burning issue.
Addressing the meeting, Colonel Sukhvir Singh Mankotia outlined the future course of action and stated that, in order to transform this struggle into a mass movement, a “Sanatan Jagran Yatra” will be launched across the entire region. “Through this initiative, the public will be made aware of how, in institutions built with Sanatani funds, their own people are being sidelined while preference is being given to non-Sanatanis,” he said and further announced that a large-scale “signature campaign” would be conducted throughout the Jammu division to gather public support and opinion.
Simultaneously, he added, protest demonstrations will be intensified to awaken the current LG administration and the Omar Abdullah Government from their slumber. He warned that the Sangharsh Samiti is prepared to go to any extent to protect its rights and the sanctity of the Mother’s shrine.
Parshotam Dadhichi took a strong notice of t the alleged silence of political representatives, stating that this was not the time to remain mere spectators. “The people have the right to know whether their elected representatives stand for the protection of Sanatan values or not,’ he added.
The meeting was attended by Akshay Kumar, Advocate Baldev Singh, Deepak Gupta, Sanjay Gupta, Shilpi Verma, Akshi Billowria, C M Seth, Subhash Jandial, Sanjeev and others.
