JAMMU, Jan 7: Former minister and senior Congress leader Raman Bhalla has alleged that both BJP and PDP have betrayed the people of the State and violated the mandate given by the electorates.
Addressing public meeting at Gadigarh in Gandhi Nagar constituency today, Bhalla said that promises made to the people like return of power projects, eradication of the unemployment, development and especially providing the basic facilities have proven a mere hoax on ground. The claims and the actual work done on ground are mismatching. The sufferings of the common people still continue.
Bhalla said that there seems to be no Government on the ground. The sufferings of the people have added manifold. Worst is the condition of roads all over the State and many development works have been stopped. People are holding protests for ration and the treasuries are unable to pay pending bills of the employees and contractors.
Reacting over IED blast which claimed lives of four policemen in Kashmir, Bhalla said that the BJP Government has failed to protect the country’s security personnel. Not a day goes without attacks on Army, paramilitary and police men, he added.
While expressing grave concern over the unabated killings, he said the BJP-led NDA Government had miserably failed to deal with the situation on the LoC. He said instead of adopting aggressive posture to counter the misdeeds of Pakistan, the Centre was befooling the people by mere rhetoric
Launched a scathing attack on BJP-PDP, Bhalla said the present coalition has failed to ensure justice to each region. He held BJP responsible for surrendering the interests of people of Jammu and throwing the elections promises to the dustbin. He exhorted the people of J&K to teach a lesson to both BJP and PDP in the upcoming Panchayat and Urban Local Bodies’ polls taking a cue from Gujarat voters.
Bhalla further said that since the current dispensation assumed charge, people here are being deprived of every basic facility. The alienation between the Government and the people is at an all time high. The people have no expectations from the government, as the government has failed to come up with people-friendly policies.
