NC leaders take dig at BJP during campaign

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Nov 2: NC leaders here today continued their election campaign in Nagrota, urging voters to support the party to ensure all-round growth and development in the region.
Addressing a series of public gatherings in the Bhalwal block, MLA Arjun Singh and the NC candidate Shamim Begum called upon the people to vote for a change in Nagrota Constituency, asserting that the BJP had failed on every front particularly in delivering progress, employment and basic amenities across Jammu, especially in Nagrota during their regime.
In his address, Arjun Singh said that BJP’s tenure had been marked by hollow promises and neglect of people’s basic needs.
“When Jammu faced floods and landslides, Omar Abdullah and his cabinet stood with the people, ensuring timely help and relief while the BJP leadership chose to remain indoors,” he maintained.
Shamim Begum assured that if elected, she would prioritize progress, employment and youth empowerment.
Among those who were present on the occasion were Satwant Kour Dogra, provincial president Women NC Wing Jammu, Rajni Devi working president Women Wing Jammu, Kuldeep Sharma, Mehmood Rizvi, Pinky Khalsa, vice president Jammu Province Women Wing, Asha Mehra, Balwant Singh, block president and others.
