DODA, Nov 15: Former Union Health Minister and Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha, Ghulam Nabi Azad today said that Congress gave response governance and era of fast track development in the J&K State.
Addressing series of pubic meetings at Kukerwas, Boudhar, Hallaran, Seot, Behota, Gurmul and Topneel in Chinab region today, Mr Azad said it is now proven fact that the Congress led Government successfully gave a responsive and affective governance and an era of fast track development. Those who are afraid of the popularity of Congress -led regime in J&K actually attempt all sorts of malicious propaganda to mislead the people in order to wean them away from Congress Party.
” I would like to pre-inform the people of Chinab region that concerted attempts are being made to derail the process of progress and development in this mountainous region by way of polarization and division,” Mr Azad said.
Claiming credit for setting out Chenab valley on the path of progress and development since 2002 after people of Chenab region, reposed confidence in Congress Party, Azad said that he does not want to say that Chenab valley has attained highest pinnacles of development during the past ten years, but no one can deny the fact that a solid beginning has been made since 2002 and today it is on the thresh hold of entering into a new phase of prosperity and progress.
“I do not say that everything has been achieved, but I can say with full conviction that it is Congress Party which has demonstrated intentions, will and ability to develop this tough region of the State”, Azad said.
Hitting out at the divisive and exploitative forces, Azad said that people are aware how the remote and backward areas were used as vote bank for almost sixty years by certain parties and it is only Congress Party which made sincere beginning to initiate development activities.
Azad said that exploitative forces are trying hard to divide the people on religious lines by spreading misinformation about the achievements of Congress-led Govt, however, the wise and sagacious people of the State will not allow such forces to succeed as there is a groundswell among the people to revive that era of progress and development which Congress-led Government demonstrated practically in short span of two and a half years.
Castigating the political parties and leaders for using every possible method and mean to divide the people to gain electoral victories, Azad said that Chenab valley will expose the nefarious designs of such power hungry parties on the day of poll by voting in favour of Congress Party.
“In keeping with the urges and aspirations of the people of the State to have credible, effective and clean Government, I am determined to bring back the glorious era of 2006-2008, provided people give decisive mandate to Congress Party”, Azad maintained.
Others who spoke on the occasion included Mohammad Sharief Niaz, Sitting MLA Bhaderwah, G M Saroori, MLA Inderwal, Ashok Dogra MLA Ramban.
