JAMMU, Apr 14: Claiming that people were disturbed over the change in BJP’s attitude after getting a clear mandate, JKPCC working president and Jammu-Reasi Parliamentary candidate Raman Bhalla today said that the public would teach a lesson to the BJP in Parliament elections.
Addressing large public rally at Gho Manhasa in Marh block today Bhalla said that people of Jammu and Kashmir are also eagerly awaiting for the opportunity to teach BJP and its allies a lesson for letting them down and not fulfilling promises made to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. Bhalla claimed that people are yearning for a change and want riddance from the BJP’s “misrule.”
Bhalla voiced concerns over the exploitation of local resources and emphasized the need for fighting for both land and jobs protection, as well as the restoration of Statehood. He strongly asserted that the people of J&K cannot tolerate external entities seizing control of local land and job opportunities. These issues are central to the people’s economic prosperity and cultural integrity.
He promised to fight for these issues in Parliament and ensure the voices of the people are heard. He reiterated Congress’s commitment to fostering growth and prosperity in J&K. He pledged to prioritize the establishment of additional Colleges, Schools, Hospitals, also need for expanded road networks to improve connectivity and facilitate economic development.
Bhalla denounced other parties for exploiting voters with false promises, particularly targeting the Congress Party for its lack of attention to crucial issues affecting the people. He expressed frustration over the sudden appearance of parties seeking votes, despite being absent from the people’s concerns for the past decade. He singled out BJP, accusing it of neglecting vital issues and resorting to abusive rhetoric instead of meaningful dialogue. He said BJP’s’ only job seems to be to abuse us, but why don’t they speak on real issues?
He sought support of the people to further pursue the pro-peace agenda of the Congress. Reiterating his resolve to remove regional disparities, he said Congress government had set an example of equitable and balanced development in Jammu and Kashmir.
Former Minister and senior vice president Mula Ram, Balwan Singh, Hari Singh Chib also addressed the gathering and appealed people to vote in favour of party candidate Raman Bhalla.
