Previous Govt made State unsafe: Manjit

Excelsior Correspondent
SAMBA, July 1: Former Minister and JKPCC General Secretary Manjit Singh flayed previous PDP-BJP Government of making the State unsafe and giving rise to militancy in Kashmir valley.
Under a democratic Government, he said, it was not expected that they don’t care about the people whether they belong to Jammu, Kashmir or Ladakh.
However, the previous Government was concerned about their selves and left the people to the mercy of God, while the situation on the border with Pakistan and in Kashmir valley continued to deteriorating day-by-day, said Manjit Singh.
The Former Minister was addressing Congress workers at Vijaypur as a part of monthly meeting.
“Congress party is one political party which always stood during crises in the country and kept Jammu and Kashmir united with rest of the Country”, he stated.
Coming down heavily on GST, he said, the BJP which is celebrating the implementation of GST across the country has failed to fulfill its own promise because tax is imposed on the commuters who enter Jammu and Kashmir from Lakhanpur. The slogans of one tax has fallen flat and has also exposed the double policies of BJP, he alleged.
He cautioned the people cutting across the religious lines to keep united and never believe in rumors because some elements in society wants to create further divisions to hurt the country on communal lines.
