The programmes and policies of the Congress party are people friendly and millions of poor people have availed benefits of these schemes”, he added.
Former Minister stated this while addressing series of corner meetings in Bhatindi area of the Gandhi Nagar constituency. He expressed gratitude to the electorates, who polled their vote in his favour.

“Congress made development as a narrative and discourse in the State, and dispersed the fruits of development beyond the confines,” former Minister said, adding that Congress had vision of a vibrant, progressive and united Jammu and Kashmir.
