Speaking on the occasion Shri Raman Bhalla said that after abrogation of special status, the lands of poor being snatched, the protection to jobs have gone and there are no jobs in government and private sector. In this situation the BJP government and UT administration is putting additional burden of all sorts of taxes on poor. When the people raise their voice, they are booked on frivolous charges and crushed to suppress the voice of people. He said that to divert the public attention from the failures on all the fronts, the BJP is trying to divide the people on communal lines. The atmosphere across the country has been vitiated with the patriotic Indians, due to attempt of the BJP to divide the common people on communal lines.
He said that the claims of BJP for opening of floodgates of private investments and creation of large scale jobs in private sector, as nothing of this sort has been witnessed. The local traders, contractors, businessmen and transporters are loosing business opportunities to outside residents, especially in Jammu region, while strongly criticizing the disbanding and downgrading of historical state into UT. He said that the promise of large scale Govt. jobs and opening private sector for jobs, was a big bluff & joke with the educated youth of J&K. He accused the BJP government of exploiting their political powers vested in them by virtue of forming the government at the Centre to target the Congress leadership and in an attempt to weaken the opposition and distract the public attention away from their failures.
Bhalla stated that the BJP is misusing government agencies like the ED to constantly harass opposition leaders especially the Congress party is being brutally targeted, as Congress leaders are not allowed to raise their voices against the blunders of the Modi Government. The government wants to suppress any voice of reason that wants to fight for the right and point out their faults, Bhalla said that the BJP government feels empowered as they control central agencies in the country and they can use them to defame and harass their opposition which is the Congress party.
He further said that the BJP has lost the moral right to go to Jammu people after betrayal after betrayal. He asked the party functionaries to highlight the failures of BJP on various fronts, including economy, foreign policy, communal harmony, inflation, farmers’ income, national security, welfare for the Scheduled castes, Scheduled tribes, and other backward classes. The best way to get rid from this anti people policies of government is to defeat BJP in the upcoming Parliament elections, Bhalla added
Reacting over the recently passed bill in the Parliament after throughout 145 opposition MPs from the Parliament Mr. Narinder Gupta, General Secretary PCC & Former Chairman Jammu Bus Stand Travel Agency said it was most unfortunate that the bill was passed in a hidden way, as there was nobody in the Parliament to oppose the decision. Moreover Govt. should take in confidence all stakeholders including opposition. Smelling large scale opposition from the people, the Govt. has kept the implementation on hold for the time being and it will again implement the same. He said the best way to get rid from all such anti-people policies of the BJP Govt. it should be defeated in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. The congress party supports Transport Unions for their right cause, Gupta added.
