JAMMU, Dec 18: Chief patron of NPP Prof Bhim Singh concluded election campaign at in Gandhi Nagar Assembly constituency with a commitment to establish Jammu Dogra Pahari State as it existed in 1846 before the signing of Treaty of Amritsar.

Prof Singh said that the Dogras were made second class citizens and Jammu as colony of the Kashmiri rulers since 1947 and let to suffer for six decades. This is the time that Jammu State is brought back to its glory and its cultural, social, political and linguistic identity is restored. That is possible only when the State is established and the Parliament is empowered to Legislate in respect of all the new three states including Kashmir Valley and Ladakh-Gilgit.
NPP leader declared that this is possible with Amendment in Article 370 so that J&K is reorganized and the people of all the three states are brought under the political control of the Parliament of India.
Prof Singh appealed the people of Gandhi Nagar Assembly constituency to elect their first woman MLA from Gandhi Nagar.
Anita Thakur party candidate from Gandhi Nagar also addressed the gathering at Gole Market and sought support for her.
