JAMMU, Feb 27: Provincial President National Conference Devender Singh Rana today lambasted Bharatya Janata Party for pursuing divisive and disruptive politics in a mistaken belief of dividing the people on communal and regional lines to further its political agenda.
Welcoming prominent businessmen from Jammu and BJP workers in the party fold at a specially organized function here this afternoon, Mr Rana eulogized the political understanding of the people, saying they can differentiate what is right and wrong for them.
Rana said parties like BJP cannot mislead the people by carving out imaginary apprehensions, adding that emotive slogans in all their manifestations have caused immense damage to the social fabric of sensitive State like Jammu and Kashmir in the past.
Referring to the problems faced by the business community and the people in Jammu city, Mr. Rana reiterated his party’s commitment to restore the pristine glory of historic Jammu city and making it a vibrant business hub of north India given its geographical importance as gateway to Kashmir. He exuded confidence that their joining will further reinvigorate the party, making it an effective instrument of assuaging the urges and aspirations of all segments of society.
Mr Rana reminded about the crucial role of trade and industry in shaping the destiny of Jammu region and said, ‘together we can lay a strong edifice for infrastructural development of the city and its peripheries as per needs of the time”.
The Provincial President assured the city dwellers that National Conference will meet the challenge of transforming the developmental landscape of the region, saying the party is committed to equitable development of all the three regions and their sub regions. He said his party will serve as a bridge between the people and the Government for the larger objective of peace and prosperity and cautioned the people to remain vigilant against the machinations of frustrated elements who are hoodwinking public opinion by raising emotive slogans.
“Growing disenchantment among people towards the parties having myopic vision is a signal in right direction and good omen for healthy politics in Jammu and Kashmir”, he said and referred to the historic role played by National Conference during past over seven decades in assuaging the genuine political urges besides meeting the developmental needs of the people when in the Government.
