Early Times Report
UDHAMPUR, Nov 21: President J&K PCC Ghulam Ahmad Mir has lashed out at BJP and Modi government for 'fleecing; the common man through tax 'terrorism' and playing the politics of hatred in the society which is dangerous for the pluralistic society.
Addressing people as part of the ongoing "Jan Jagran Abhiyan" at block Ghari here Mir said that huge assets and infrastructure created by previous governments have been put on sale by the present Government besides making the life of common people miserable through heavy taxes and sky touching in all daily used commodities.
Mir said that Congress was instrumental in making the opposition parties stand united while demanding a repeal of all three farm laws during the last parliament session. Right from parliament to the streets, the opposition parties unanimously demanded the withdrawal of all three farm laws.
"After nearly 12 months of peaceful protests, today the struggle and will power of 62 crore 'Annadatas', farmers and farm labourers of the country have finally won. Today the sacrifices of more than 700 farmers' families paid off, whose family members sacrificed their lives in this struggle for truth, justice and non-violence which ultimately won," said Mir.
Bhalla said that the party is making the public aware about the ill-conceived policies of the BJP, which has caused inflation, unemployment and has created hardships for the people of the union territory. He said the people of UT have rejected the BJP and have acknowledged the Congress.
"The entire party cadre is motivated right now and wants to ensure that the BJP is uprooted from power in 2022. We are out to find out silent Congress workers in every village and invite them to strengthen the party to give state a democratic government whenever assembly elections are held in J&K," he said.
Bhalla claimed that after Congress' protests, providing a relief to the general public, the Centre levied less excise duty on the prices of petrol and diesel. He said the Congress is now making preparations to force the Central government to withdraw all three farm laws in the Parliament. For this the Congress leaders will reach out to the people demanding the union government assuring the Minimum Support Price (MSP) on crops, loan waiver, removal of GST from agriculture sector and other important issues, he said.
Bhalla claimed that the Congress party will form the next government in J&K, saying people were disillusioned with the BJP government. He disclosed that under the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led BJP government, the price of LPG cylinders has increased by Rs. 305. Due to the increase in the price of LPG cylinders, 42 per cent of people have stopped using LPG for cooking and started using wood, he claimed.
