JAMMU, Sept 7: The JKPCC working president, Raman Bhalla today visited Deep Nagar Colony, Ward-55 as a part of his public outreach programme and interacted with prominent persons of the area.
Speaking on the occasion, Bhalla said that BJP Government has been pushing the development of the country backward by several years with wasteful expenditure. He said people are fed up with price rise, unemployment and loss of businesses and livelihoods. The Congress party has always offered nation a far more credible ideology than the BJP. For Congress it not merely an instrument for fighting elections every five years, there is a great deal that it has done for the country, helping citizens in their interactions with the government, the police, and the unfeeling petty bureaucracy they have to confront daily.
Bhalla said Congress has always prioritized the ethos of politics as social work for those who cannot help themselves. Rajiv Gandhi succeeded Indira Gandhi and took over the leadership of the Congress. Rajiv was a politician committed to the overall development of India. He took all the steps to take India forward on the path of rapid progress.
He said Congress always safeguarded the rights and interests of weaker sections including political, economic, professional courses, jobs and developmental aspects. He said right from freedom till date their rights to reservations in services, jobs, political representations including in the PRIs was ensured by the Congress to give them their due share. He asked them to strengthen congress for their rights, interests and upliftment of future generations.
Bhalla said that fire of inflation has victimised every person in the society. Buying a gas cylinder for the home is now out of reach. The skyrocketing prices of petrol, diesel, flour, edible oil, pulses, vegetables and daily essentials have made life difficult for most of the people. Unemployment and inflation have now become a curse for the citizens of the country.
