| If we come to power will ensure resources are handed over to locals: Altaf Bukhari | | ‘No outsider will be allowed to intervene or exploit natives’ | | Early Times Report
KATHUA, Mar 6: Apni Party President, Syed Mohammed Altaf Bukhari today said that his party’s agenda has got acceptance in Jammu because people were fed-up with the divisive politics of the traditional political parties. He was speaking at a public meeting organized by party’s assembly candidate for Kathua Kushboo Bhagat. Bukhari said, “It is due to the policies of the Apni Party that the people have accepted the party in Jammu despite presence and strong roots of traditional political parties. It is happening because the Apni Party believes in unity and speaks about the issues being confronted by the common masses. Such issues are hardly addressed by the traditional political parties. These political parties always tried to gain public support with their policy of dividing public opinion with their divisive ideology.” He said that the Apni Party speaks about unity, employment, reservation for local unemployed youth in industrial sector, ending monopoly of outsiders on J&K’s resources, ending drug addiction/smuggling and equitable development of all the regions without discrimination. “Apni Party represents all sections of society equally, particularly the marginalized section of society who remained neglected with regard to development in the last seventy years. It is this policy which has attracted the people towards Apni Party and this stand is unlike traditional political parties,” he said.
He said that after the revocation of Article 370 from J&K, everyone in J&K including Jammu’s every person was saddened because lakhs of people who were associated with the extraction of minerals were left workless as their trade was gradually grabbed by the outsiders. Their right to earning was taken over by the non-locals and it created a sense of insecurity and great distress, he said. Strongly condemning BJP for demanding a local chief minister from Jammu, he said that who else can be more associated with Jammu then myself who has invested here from last 31 years in the industrial sector. Am I not from Jammu? The divisive agenda is again being adopted to mislead the innocent people of Jammu with false slogans which would further alienate them.
Referring to the issue of JKP’s border battalion, he said that the youth who were assured employment in the border battalion are still holding protest demonstrations in support of their demands but the Govt seems unmoved with regard to the genuine demands of the aspiring youth. He said that the traditional political parties have preferred silence on the issue of investment and unemployment. However, the Apni Party will not compromise on the issues of the common masses as they have suffered very badly for the last over three years.
“Apni Party believes in social engineering by providing equal rights to everyone with regard to development and employment.
On the other, the traditional political parties have only provided lip service. In Kathua district, one can find such areas which still lack proper road connectivity, health services, and mobile phone connectivity,” he said and questioned the claims of the administration with regard to the development. |
