Manmohan Singh further said that we must try to win the trust and confidence of the people and spread the policies and programmes of the party as well. He appealed the party functionaries to liberally contribute in the ‘Donate for Desh’ fund launched by AICC.
DCC leader said BJP leadership in the state always sincerely followed the dictates of BJP high command and bartered the interests of Jammu. He said that the `so called’ champions of Jammu utterly failed to represent the aspirations of people and safeguard their interests, be it educated youth, farmers, traders or employees/workers and betrayed the trust reposed in BJP by the Jammu people. Now, the people are eagerly waiting to teach a lesson to the BJP in the Parliament as well as in Assembly and Local Bodies elections.
