JAMMU, Dec 31: AICC Secretary Co-incharge J&K Affairs, Dr Shakeel Ahmed Khan (MLA) has said that Congress will stage a comeback in the State in the coming Assembly elections.
Addressing a meeting of senior leaders, contesting candidates, DCC functionaries and delegates and Block presidents of Jammu District here today Khan said that Congress is the only alternative available to the people in all three regions of the State and people have made up their mind to bring back Congress to power. “The people of Jammu have experienced that BJP has cheated them on different emotional slogans and false promises only to achieve power but back-tracked on all those issues for the sake of sharing power,” he said.

Asking the party rank and file to expose the misdeeds and failures of the BJP to educate the masses whose problems have been complicated besides disturbing the social and secular fabric of the State, he said Congress alone can ensure justice to all sections and regions of the State and take along all sections of the society.
All senior leaders of the party also spoke on the occasion and apprised the central leadership about the issues of different sections . The issues of formers, residents of border areas, refugees of 1947, 1965 and 1971, unemployed youth, SCs/STs and OBCs and favoritism, nepotism & corruption in jobs, dominated the deliberations.
