Addressing a meeting at Panchayat Chajjla of Mendhar constituency, Rana said that the State has witnessed many turmoils but the phase of BJP/ PDP has given more sufferings and pain to people of the State.
“Both these parties owe an apology to the people of Jammu and Kashmir for compromising their ideology and always keeping their personal interests above the larger interest of people on every front, be it development, governance, security of the citizens,” he alleged and added that the current alienation was the gift of the previous alliance partners who pushed this State into thores of instability.
Further speaking at the meeting, Rana said he was very hopeful that the Governor would bring some imminent changes to control the situation in and around the State, but he also failed to bring people of the State out of the miseries. “The Governor’s secretariat has ignored Rajouri- Poonch and I cannot remember anyday, when Governor or any of his advisors visited this hilly region. This region has been left at the mercy of God,” he lamented.
“Malik should concentrate more on governance, so that the problems of the people of Jammu and Kashmir are mitigated. I think there is a need of sincere outreach to redress the day- to – day problems of the people,” Rana added.
He also highlighted the condition of Health and PHE department by saying that he has written a letter to the Governor for the same.
