Early Times Report
SAMBA, July 28: AICC Secretary Co-Incharge J&K Affairs Divya Mahipal Maderna Ex-MLA Rajasthan today cautioned the people about the threat to democracy and religious harmony in the Country and said that Congress is the only secular, democratic force which can defeat the communal, divisive and anti-democratic forces & lead the country on the path of peace, progress and all round development.
Addressing a gathering of Congress workers at Samba today, AICC Secretary said that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has proved that non-violence and satyagrah are the strongest weapons against authoritarianism as a result Modi government has to bow before the youth but regretted that young boys and girls, seeking justice and fighting against corruption in the system, were subjected to atrocities and use of pallet guns.
She said it was LOP Rahul Gandhi who is fighting the authoritarian policies of BJP government for more than twelve years and now the outbursts of Gen Z is the result of strong arms methods of Modi Government against all just and peaceful protests in the country.
She regretted that hundreds of students were injured and hospitalized due to the use of pallet guns, and other excesses by the police.
Referring to the demand of statehood to J&K, AICC Secretary said that it is the betrayal of BJP, which is refusing to fulfill the promise to the people of Jammu and Kashmir, after getting huge mandate on te promise of restoration of statehood. She said Congress is fighting for the rights, dignity, status and identityof the people of J&K.
Addressing the gathering working President Raman Bhalla launched a scatting attack on BJP for their neglect and betrayal of people of Jammu region after making tall promises to the people especially the youths.
The BJP wants to rule from Delhi through remote control under UT and does not want to grant statehood and transfer power to the people of J&K, like in other states of the country. The local BJP MLAs and MPs are dancing to the tunes of central leadership and maintaining silence over the issue of statehood, unemployment and regularisation of the daily wagers, contractual and temporary employees for decades besides developmental issues.
The BJP is responsible for the lack of adequate developmental activities in Jammu region due to lack of adequate funds and sanction of major projects of various kinds including the tourism sector.
Former Minister Yash Paul Kundal lashed out at the centre government and BJP leadership for the hardships faced by the common man and the youth on various fronts due to unprecedented price hike, large scale unemployment, joblessness and bunglings in recruitments and examinations. The youth are getting frustrated a lot and asserting for reforms and streamling the education and recruitment system for which our dynamic leadership of Rahul Gandhi has been fighting.
DCC President Samba Sanjeev Sharma referred to the party activities to expose the BJP on NEET paper leakage, Chanda Chori, Vote Chori and large scale corruption and unemployment. The people are fed up with the Modi Government and want to bring change in future. He referred to the problems faced by farmers, labourers and border people and unemployed youth. In the absence of statehood there is no accountability in the administration and bureaucracy in J&K, so statehood is foremost demand.
