Rana lauds peoples' mandate to NC in DDC elections | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Dec 31: Lauding the people of Jammu for the overwhelming support and massive mandate to the National Conference in Jammu province in the District Development Council elections, the Provincial President Devender Singh Rana today exuded confidence that the mandate of the people would be respected in the larger interest of democracy. “We hope Lt Governor Manoj Sinha, who has ensured peaceful polls, will ensure the will of the people prevails and the people’s verdict is respected”, Rana said at a press conference in reply to a question at Sher-e-Kashmir Bhavan here this evening. When told about certain political parties claiming that the National Conference would be heading only two district councils across J&K, Rana retorted back saying this speaks of the vicious mindset since the results clearly show otherwise. Rana said the National Conference has highest strike rate of 41% followed by the BJP’s 33% and Congress’s 14% thereby clearly defying the people’s mandate. Reversing public mandate by political manoeuvring will be undemocratic, he said hoping that the administration would take note of such claims and facilitate democracy to prevail as per the wishes of the people, which they have demonstrated explicitly. Former Ministers Ajay Kumar Sadhotra, Surjeet Singh Slathia and senior leaders were present in the press conference. Rana expressed gratitude to the people of Jammu province in reposing their trust in the forward looking policies of the National Conference, saying the party will continue to work for their dignity, empowerment and welfare. Rana said the National Conference is a pan J&K party, which is reflected by presence of its vast cadre in both the regions as also in Ladakh. Peoples' unflinching support in the just concluded polls is yet another affirmation of their trust in the party which has improved its vote share in the Jammu Province and bagged seats across the region.
