He flayed the erstwhile unholy alliance for treating them like ‘disposables’ and putting their future in jeopardy. He said BJP’s trumpeted slogan of ‘Achhey Din’ was just as a hollow rant as the youth of J&K felt let down due to nasty SRO 202 and withdrawal of age relaxation in Civil Services granted to them in the past. He said the down-gradation of J&K State to UT status by the BJP led Government with ban on mobile internet services, imposition of ‘Kesari Jazia’ in the name of multiple toll plazas and other obnoxious taxes had exposed the Saffron party in true colours.
“The demotion has only brought pain, sorrow, humiliation and disenchantment for the people of Jammu region. Now, it’s time that we all should unite to teach a befitting lesson to the double faced BJP in the Assembly elections for its acts of betrayals, treachery and perfidy,” he said while addressing a gathering in connection with the joining of JKNPP by more than 60 youth from Jammu, led by S Amandeep Singh, District President Jammu (Rural) Young Panthers.
Speaking on the occasion, S Amandeep Singh regretted that the issues and concerns of the nationalist people of the Jammu region and the youth in particular had been left unaddressed by the BJP. “The people are feeling cheated and suffocated. We have a firm belief that Panthers Party only can provide us succor and liberate the people of Jammu Pradesh from all kinds of miseries and hardships. Unlike BJP, it was only NPP which raised all the Jammu centric issues neglected and ignored by the Saffron Party for the last 5 years,” Amandeep endorsed.
