POONCH, July 25: Provincial president of Youth National Conference (YNC) Jammu and former MLA Ajaz Jan today castigated the Central Government stating that the hollow policies of Government have only resulted in manifold increase in sufferings of the people.
While addressing a joining programme held here today, Ajaz Jan said that BJP befooled the people with its hollow promises before the elections and the common people today realize that they have been totally betrayed by the saffron party. He said the young lot has suffered a lot due to anti-youth policies adopted by the Centre.
The former MLA said that the development works initiated during the National Conference regime has become stand still as the funds received under Capex and State Plan remains non-utilized. He said the people of entire Poonch district have been facing acute hardships due to the lack of basic amenities.
Jan lashed out at the Government for the betrayal with daily wagers who were on roads, seeking justice. He asserted that the entire BJP leadership has promised to regularize the daily wagers but after coming to power they failed to pay them regular wages.
He demanded the Government to formulate a regularization policy for all categories of daily wagers, casual, need based workers and temporary, contractual employees so that they would have a sigh of relief in this highly inflation period.
Jan asserted that the Jammu and Kashmir is passing through a difficult phase and need of the time is to strengthen the hands of Dr Farooq Abdullah and Omar Abdullah to steer it to peace, progress and development.
Earlier, scores of leaders from various political parties joined the National Conference due to pro-people policies and programmes of the party.
