Jammu, July 30
Following recent announcement of holding Panchayat and Urban Local Bodies elections, Zonal Secretary and Coordinator Jammu District (Urban) JKNC, Dr. Vikas Sharma held a meeting with a large group of youth and sounded them to be in readiness for ensuing Panchayat / ULBs elections.
Flaying the anti-public as well as anti-youth policies adopted by BJP party, Dr. Vikas said that all the promises made by the BJP party have fallen flat with educated pushed into deep unemployment crisis due to policy paralysis of BJP Govt.
He lamented that BJP has totally destroyed the Jammu region after abrogation of Art 370 and people of Jammu are being harassed and hoodwinked on the name of developing Jammu as a smart city. He alleged that the smart city project with crores of rupees is a big scandal as all is based on paperwork, but on ground nothing much visible has been done vis-a-vis huge allocation of funds.
Snubbing present LG govt functioning under the direct control of BJP Govt at the Centre, he said that govt has adopted new modus operandi to mentally torture the people of Jammu by imposing property tax, installation of power smart meters, now pre-paid meters, he alleged, adding that in fact, a mechanism is being put in place to embarrass public by resorting to unwarranted means.
Zonal Secretary alleged that the political party in power has totally spoiled the earning pattern of locals of Jammu as all the Govt works including contracts of sand, bajri, wine shops, parking spots have been allotted to the people from outside JK UT jeopardizing the living standard of general public Jammu and Kashmir and drastically dwindling their livelihood.
He further said that all the important positions in the UT Govt sector and universities have deliberately been given and occupied by officers from outside JKUT under a well knit conspiracy to make the lives of people here quite miserable with none to listen to their genuine grievances, he added.
He appealed that in the coming elections including parliamentary, assembly or local bodies, all have to join hands together to defeat the evil designs of BJP party to gain power by hook or crook given the bad to worse experience of its miss governance since last nine years, he alleged.
Dr Vikas Sharma urged them to strengthen the hands of Jammu and Kashmir National Conference led by Dr. Farooq Abdhulla and Jenab Omar Abdullah, who are the only hope obviously left over for people here to heave a sigh of relief during NC Government in Jammu and Kashmir.
