JAMMU, Mar 6: Socialistic Democratic Party (SDP) today announced the name of Balwinder Kour as the party candidate for Jammu East constituency for 2014 elections.
This was announced at a press conference by the SDP President Dr Darakhshan Andrabi here today. She was accompanied by party candidate for Jammu-Poonch Parliamentary seat, Gursagar Singh Isher, general secretary Ajay Kumar and Balvinder Kour.
While addressing the conference Dr Darakhshan said that she was satisfied with the public popularity and support of people for Balvinder Kour and her background as a social worker. ‘During the last few months, Balvinder has succeeded in reaching out to the people of the constituency and carrying the programme and political ideology to public. “We all believe that she will emerge as the new representative of the constituency as a potent substitute to the leaders of other political parties who have only exploited people and done nothing concrete for their welfare and development,” said Dr Andrabi.
She garlanded Balwinder Kour and asked her to prove herself a true youth icon for the constituency and the rest of the state by her public service oriented politics. “Women are deciding factor in our democracy and when we are ready to give women their equal right at the political stage, then only can we dream of having an honest political system in the state and the country. We in SDP have always placed women at a commanding place and Balwinder Kour is yet another example of the same in SDP,” said Dr Andrabi.
She appealed to the women voters of the state to come out for the change and vote for SDP, the party of common people represented by the honest, dedicated and educated youth of the State.
