BJP belies hopes, aspirations of J&K people: Harsh

Excelsior Correspondent

UDHAMPUR, Feb 26: Accusing the BJP at the Centre and J&K of having belied the hopes and aspirations of the people of the UT, Harsh Dev Singh, chairman JKNPP and former Minister today said that time had come to teach a lesson to those who betrayed the voters by false narrative and deceptive slogans.
He said that while the slogans of “corruption free dispensation” and “Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas” remained a distant mirage, the bold assertions of “Achhe Din” have continued to remain mired in ambiguity. The saffron rule witnessed uncontrolled inflation, steep rise in petrol and diesel prices and demonetization which gave a stunning blow to the economy of the nation besides rattling the middle classes and lower income groups.
“Not only did the BJP Government fail on governance front but law and order situation deteriorated to an all-time low. The internal security became the biggest causality of BJP rule with unprecedented death and destruction shaking people’s faith in the dispensation they headed”, asserted Singh.
The JKNPP chairman said with unemployment having assumed alarming proportions, the educated unemployed youth suffered most heavily under the BJP regime. He said that the simmering discontent amongst the educated youth posed a major challenge which could have earth shaking consequences in the days to come.
