JAMMU, Apr 24: Former JMC Mayor and senior BJP leader, Rajinder Sharma today said that it was only PM Modi led Government which gave political empowerment to tribal Gujjars by reserving nine Assembly seats for the community.
Addressing a public gathering at Ragoora area near Sidhra on the outskirts of Jammu, Sharma sought votes for BJP candidate, Jugal Kishore Sharma contesting Lok Sabha elections from Jammu-Samba-Reasi Parliamentary Constituency.
“Any vote in favour of BJP candidate will strengthen the hands of PM Modi which will pave the way for third term to Modi to helm the affairs of the country for taking the largest democracy of the world to newer heights,” Sharma said.
He said that it was PM Modi led Government which gave political reservation to PoJK refugees by reserving one Legislative Assembly seat for them. “Kashmiri Pandits also got political reservation by this government as two Assembly seats have been reserved for them while the Pahari people of J&K got the status of Scheduled Tribes under the regime of PM Modi,” former mayor maintained.
He asked the people to vote overwhelmingly on April 26 in favour of BJP candidate to strengthen the hands of Modi. “A vote in favour of BJP candidate will strengthen the nation while vote in favour of wrong candidate may push the country to uncertainty, scams and unrest,” the senior BJP leader continued.
He also counted achievements of PM Modi led Government like soft landing on moon, manufacturing of COVID-19 vaccine within India, Ayushman Card facility for extending medical benefits up to Rs 5 lakh to all the people of the country and much more.
Sharma said that in third term PM Modi will accomplish the unaccomplished tasks and will take the nation to newer heights.
