JAMMU, July 14: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chief coordinator Choudhary Abdul Hamid has said that foundation of PDP was laid upon the principle of restoration of peace and end of enmity between the two countries and the ultimate goal of the party has never been to be in power but to provide service to people of the State.
He was speaking in a meeting of party office bearers including district and zone presidents of Jammu province, convened in wake of coming foundation day of the party, to be celebrated at Gandhi Nagar Jammu on July 28.
Choudhary said that the party is ready to sacrifice the Government thousand times if it is for the safeguarding of the interests of the people of Jammu & Kashmir and save them from tyrannical times. He said the reasons that the BJP gave for pulling out of the support from the PDP are worth to hail and that the party feels proud for such reasons whether it was the demand of dialogue, ceasefire or withdrawal of cases against first time offenders.
Rejecting the accusations of the BJP leadership about disparity with Jammu, party general secretary, Ved Mahajan, said that it is not based on facts that Jammu and Ladakh faced the neglect of any sort. “Equitable development of all the three regions remained a top priority of the Government and Jammu and Ladakh were equally benefitted by the governance of the PDP- BJP coalition and it is irony that hiding their own faults the BJP leadership is arguing about the less development in Jammu while as they forgot that BJP was the equal partner in the coalition and the BJP ministers were holding key portfolios in the Government.”
