JAMMU, Sept 17: Rattan Lal Gupta Provincial President Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) today urged the party cadre especially the workers and activists to gear up for the upcoming polls.
Gupta was addressing a meeting of the party workers held under the chairmanship of party’s District President Chander Mohan Sharma here today. The meeting was convened to discuss the strategy regarding the upcoming (Urban Local Bodies) ULB elections of Jammu Municipal Corporation.
The senior National Conference leader said that the victory of National Conference is the only solution for bidding farewell to all the problems being faced by the common people. He said that people are fed up with the BJP’s anti people governance and continue struggling amid miseries thrust upon them by the saffron party’s proxy administration in Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory.
Gupta lamented that the sufferings of the people are multiplying with each passing day and the LG administration is totally failed in controlling the shooting prices of essential items, unemployment, problems of daily wagers, scams in Medical Department, Jal Shakti Department and recruitment agencies.
After holding detailed deliberations and discussions on the strategy for upcoming elections, he directed the party cadre to hold meetings in all the wards and formulate a programme to carry out poll campaigns in all the 75 wards of Jammi Municipal Corporation.
Chander Mohan Sharma highlighted the utter failure of JMC in providing proper civic amenities to the people of Jammu. He pooh-poohed the BJP regime of wasting taxpayers’ money on non productive works under the so called Jammu Smart City project that has been causing more inconvenience to people rather than easing their life in the City of Temples
