UDHAMPUR, May 1: Coordinator Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) J&K Manish Sinha today castigated BJP for playing communal card to hoodwink people.
He was speaking during a programme organized here in connection with Labour Day celebrations, in which more than three hundred political workers of different parties joined AAP. Sinha alleged that BJP is relying on divisive agenda to take political mileage thus exploiting masses through spreading hatred between different communities.
AAP leaders Balwant Mankotia, Taranjit Singh Tony (DDC Member Suchetgarh), Parvinder Singh Happy, Somnath, president Labour Union, Ashwani Khajuria, Councillors Preeti Khajuria, Samnik Bhasin and AAP district president Varun Bhagat were present during the event.
Addressing the gathering, Sinha said that AAP has provided justice to the poor strata and labour class by implementing Minimum Wages Act in Delhi. He said that J&K UT should introspect and feel ashamed that they have given a raise of Rs 75 to daily wagers which is a cruel joke and unacceptable.
Senior AAP leaders Balwant Mankotia and Taranjit Singh Tony asserted that after the historic victory in Punjab where AAP swept Assembly elections, the party is all set to form Government in J&K as and when Centre will hold the same. They said that people of the UT were fed up of the lies of BJP leadership and deception of Congress and other parties and therefore majority is inclined towards supporting AAP to get rid of problems created by the BJP Government at the Centre.
Tony said that BJP is exploiting daily wagers by not regularizing them despite trails of assurances while Mankotia said that the time has come when the people should give a chance to AAP headed by Arvind Kejriwal to mitigate their problems once and for all.
Later, AAP leaders along with the youth and people of Udhampur protested in front of DC Office Udhampur for irregular supply of water and power.
