JAMMU, Jan 31: Senior Congress leaders have said that public resentment in J&K has gained momentum against BJP Govt at the Centre.
Addressing large public gathering at Ghou Manhasan in Marh constituency of district Jammu today, senior Congress leaders Mula Ram and Raman Bhalla said alleged that public anger was on the rise against BJP Govt’s wrong policies in J&K. They alleged that every section of the society, including farmers, traders and Government employees were fed up with this “anti-people” dispensation.
They urged the people to get rid of the “anti-people” BJP in the next Assembly elections. They said all sections of the society are suffering because of “anti-people policies” of the BJP Government. They said that the poor-sections of the society are suffering a lot due to mis-rule of both Central and LG Administration, which are led by BJP.
They asked the people that if they want to mitigate their sufferings, they must come under the banner of Congress Party whose leaders have sacrificed their whole life for the upliftment of poor masses of India. Senior Congress leader accused the BJP Government of befooling the people of J&K by its false claims of development.
They ashed out at BJP for abandoning people with their problems being related to the basic amenities during its nightmarish rule, saying the promises made during 2014 Parliamentary and Assembly elections proved just hoax. They said BJP did nothing for the people except generating passions on religious and regional lines. The people have been living miserable life during the past more than six years, with nobody addressing their problems, they added.
Former MLA Marh, Thakur Balwan Singh and DCC Jammu Rural president, Th Hari Singh Chib also launched scathing attack on BJP and alleged that they have let down the people of Jammu region. They said the BJP stands totally exposed before the people of Jammu.
