REASI, Nov 27: Chief patron of National Panthers Party Prof Bhim Singh has said that National Panthers Party was committed for Jammu Dogra Pahari State and similar status for Kashmir and Ladakh regions.
Addressing election rallies at Katra, Reasi and Arnas in district Reasi today Prof Singh declared that the Panthers Party stands for Jammu Dogra Pahari State to end 60 years old slavery, exploitation, discrimination and authoritarian rule. The Panthers party released its manifesto last evening with 31 points including the reorganization of J&K. This is the only way that people of Ladakh, Kashmir valley and Jammu Pradesh shall get equity and justice, after reorganization with separate Chief Ministers, separate Assemblies, separate budgets and separate recruitment boards.
In two public meetings at Udhampur and Ramnagar constituencies, where Balwant Singh Mankotia, MLA and Harshdev Singh- MLA are contesting, Prof Singh accused both Delhi and Srinagar based political parties for exploiting the people of Jammu Pradesh and using them for 65 years as sheep and goats.
Prof Singh was accompanied by Harshdev Singh in Ramnagar segment, Balwant Singh Mankotia in Udhampur segment, Balwan Singh candidate in Reasi segment and Shakeel Ahmed contesting from Gool-Arnas segment.
Singh accused BJP of encouraging defection, misusing its position in Government by his hate speeches spreading conflict and confusion. He accused BJP of exploiting the people of Jammu for 64 years in the name of Article 370 which BJP promised to abrogate if it comes to power. After coming to power Mr Modi has started exploiting the Kashmiris that BJP shall not touch Article 370. He called on the people of Jammu region to beware of the ugly designs of BJP which is interested only to seek power.
Bhim Singh flayed State Government for denying relief and compensation to the flood victims which proves that NC-Congress Government has no love for Jammu. He also accused the State Government for the violation of the Code of Conduct by favouring NC, Congress and BJP candidates only.
