SAMBA, Apr 1: Former Minister and Congress candidate from Jammu-Poonch constituency, Raman Bhalla today held series of election meetings in Vijaypur and Samba Assembly constituencies.
Speaking on the occasion, Bhalla said that there is strong resentment among people of Vijaypur towards BJP MLA who failed to address even basic issues of constituency. “Majority of people maintained that there was no new developments but only facelift of the previous works were done whereas untold stories of neglect were uttered by the border firing victims,” he claimed.
Bhalla highlighted the history of Congress party and said that the leaders of Congress party from the day of its origin have sacrificed their lives for the sake of nation. He said that only Congress party is secular and did not believe in caste, creed and colour. He said that the BJP for the sake of power forgot the interest of Hindus for which the people of Jammu region had given the party mandate. He claimed that it is only Congress party which can keep the State united. “People are coming in support of Congress party across the country and National president Rahul Gandhi will lead the nation,” Bhalla said expressing hope that in J&K too Congress will form Government on its own and will ensure all over development in all three regions of the State.
Bhalla said that unholy BJP-PDP alliance only promoted communal and regional divide. “Today’s situation is the outcome of the misrule and poor governance in the State. They were proved as worst failure and now trying again to befool people,” Bhalla said adding that alliance between the PDP and BJP aggravated the divisions.
Bhalla said that people of the Jammu region were back stabbed by BJP leadership as the party brazenly abandoned its core agenda and adopted indifferent approach towards problems of the masses. He also drew attention towards no development of twin pilgrimage centers of Purmandal and Utterbehni which are the part of Vijaypur Assembly constituency.
Prominent among those who accompanied Raman Bhalla, included ex MP Madan Lal Sharma, ex Minister Manjeet Singh, ex-Minister Gurbachana Kumari Rana, Pandit Sidhu Ram, ex MLA Parkash Sharma, Vinod Mishra, Sunny Sangral, ex MLC Noor Hussain, Youth president Udhay Bannu Chib, Th.
