Addressing the meeting PCC President Shri Vikar Rasool Wani said that Congress will emerge victorious in most of the states which went to polls but one thing is clear that all over India it is the Congress versus BJP or the other regional forces in respective states, so congress is the real national party having stong presence in all states and UTs. He said that BJP has presence only in half of the states with Govt. in only in 9  out of 28 states but congress is a force in almost  all states and UTs of the country. Predicting congress victory in majority states which went to polls besides performing well in others  too, despite all sorts of foul tactics by the ruling BJP, JKPCC said that only congress can claim truly national party having strength or strong presence all over India and having a secular and inclusive agenda to strengthen the idea of INDIA and democracy.

He said that Congress will emerge victorious in J&K too, as and when elections are held to the assembly here , Swhich is the reason of delay of elections by BJP but we have to reach out to every nook and corner of UT in next weeks. He said that an important meeting JKPCC Executive shall be held shortly in next ten days to chalk out further strategy, in which AICC Incharge J&K Affairs and some other important leadership shall attend.

Panicked by the  anti-BJP wave in J&K, the Centre Govt and ruling party is using official machinery and public  exchequer  to publicize its prorammes and policies  at Govt expenses. The futile exercise of back to village, my town my pride and block divas etc are only planned and organized to publicize the BJP Govt’s performance and policies, fearing defeat by BJP. However these are no takers of the BJP, false propaganda, as the people have seen through their working, leading to large scale unemployment and unprecedented price rise. He said that congress shall reach out to every village in the coming weeks and further strengthen the organization at grass root level and for this purpose the DCC, BCC Presidents and Incharge leaders should gear up and set up committees at each levels.

Shri Raman Bhalla said that congress will emerge stronger in the results of five states and in coming elections in Jammu and Kashmir But BJP   is avoiding elections to the assembly, Panchayas and ULBs for fear of loosing elections.

In his address Bhalla exhorted the party leaders to gear up the organizational activities in their respective districts and assembly constituencies to highlight the failures of the Modi Govt. on all fronts, especially in controlling prices and providing jobs to the unemployed youth. He cautioned against the divisive agenda of BJP, as it has nothing else to sell to the people in coming elections .

The meeting was addressed by Sr. Vice Presidents Balwan Singh and Ravinder Sharma, Vice Presidents, General Secretaries, DCC Presidents, frontal heads and secretaries of the PCC who put forth the suggestions for exposing the BJP’s divisive agenda and its failures on all fronts especially in restoration of state and democracy in J&K. The party should gear up to force the Govt. to hold early assembly elections apart from ULB and Panchayats in J&K at the earliest, before the Lok Sabha elections. The meeting chalked out the strategy to reach out to the people at the grass root levels and expose  the failures of the government and highlight the burning issues faced by the people.

The meeting also took strong exception to he deteriorating security situation in different pats especially in Rajouri-Poonch and asked the Centre Govt. and UT administration to deal with the sensitive situation effectively and ensure safety of innocents. The meeting paid rich tributes  to the martyred security personnel in the recent terrorist attack.
