JAMMU, Aug 8: The BJP-PDP Coalition Government in the State is using Section 144 of RPC to crush the ongoing movement for the establishment of AIIMS in Jammu, but we will resist all anti-democratic methods being used by it to gag our voice, said chairman AIIMS CC and President JKHCBA, Jammu, Abhinav Sharma while addressing the ACC members during the meeting organized at Bar Chamber Complex, here today.
“The Coalition Government of which, the BJP is a part on Friday lifted Section 144 to enable the pro-Kashmir BJP to take out a rally in Jammu. This is the same Government which impose Section 144 after the ACC decided to intensify its agitation and take out rallies in different parts of the city to express its thanks to the people for their overwhelming support to the six day long Bandh. The biased authorities made unjust distinction between the ACC and the BJP to create difficulties for ACC members,” Abhinav Sharma said and added that the ACC members are fully prepared to face the official wrath. He declared after the conclusion of the meeting that the ACC shall achieve its objective at any cost.
All the constituents resolved to further strengthen the ACC, saying it is the need of the people of Jammu Province as political parties in general and the BJP in particular have ditched them to appease Kashmir and further promote its interest at the cost of Jammu region. “We have to maintain our unity and not to fall in the BJP trap, they said adding, We will defeat the BJPs policy of divide and rule.”
The ACC chairman also announced that the general body meeting of the Bar Association will be held on Monday, August 10, at 11 a.m. to chalk out future course of action calculated to achieve a full-fledged AIIMS for Jammu and also requested all Bar members to turn up on time to reiterate their commitment for the Jammu cause.
Abhinav Sharma also read out a letter from Chamber of Commerce and Industry and informed the ACC members that the CCI was, is and shall be the part of ACC and it will fight for the rights of the people of Jammu region.
