JAMMU, Aug 17: Reiterating that AIIMS issue stands settled as per the aspirations of the people of Jammu, the State unit of BJP has said that the decision of Bar Association Jammu (BAJ), to call off its strike is endorsement of Party’s repeated stand on establishment of AIIMS in Jammu.
Talking to media persons here today at Party headquarters, BJP State chief spokesperson, Sunil Sethi along with State spokesperson Balbir Ram Rattan, said that the decision of the general house of Bar Association Jammu to call off strike reflects on the confidence on the BJP Govt by members of BAJ in general on the issue of AIIMS, which according to party is now a settled issue and the same can be well understood that necessary directions for identification of land both in Jammu and Srinagar have already been issued.
“With the resumption of normal working in the courts after calling off the strike, the problems of the litigants will also be mitigated”, he said, adding that the party welcomed the decision of the Bar Association.
Sethi said that the decision of the BAJ is also a befitting reply to vested interests, which were deliberately creating confusions to mislead the public, when there is overall appreciation of the steps taken by Union Government in timely providing AIIMS for Jammu as per the aspirations of the people.
