“Have to form a double-engine govt”: Uttarakhand CM Dhami campaigns for party in J&K

Kathua (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], September 20 (ANI): Uttarakhand Chief Minister Puskhar Singh Dhami addressed public gatherings to campaign in support of BJP candidate Darshan Singh in Basantpur (Basohli), Jammu and Kashmir.

While campaigning for the BJP candidate on Thursday, CM Dhami said that he has come from Devbhoomi Uttarakhand, where gods reside in every place. He said that the Basohli area is also known as a place of temples.

“By giving our support to BJP candidate Darshan Singh, we have to make him win with maximum votes and by voting on the lotus flower, we have to form a double-engine government in the entire state so that happiness, peace and prosperity can be spread in Jammu,” he said.

He said that many candidates are coming to this area to seek the votes of the people, but the public is well aware of their character. Darshan Singh has always stood with the people and pledged to develop the area. On one side there are those who only ask for votes and on the other side there is a BJP candidate who serves.

The Chief Minister said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, our country has progressed as a world power. Today the world awaits India’s stand in every major event. In the last 10 years, the country has progressed rapidly in the fields of health, road, rail, infrastructure development, and modernity.

Today, India has become the fifth-largest economy in the world. The Prime Minister has resolved to make India the world’s largest economy. He said that the historic work of abolishing Article 370 has been done under the leadership of the Prime Minister. Elections are going to be held for the first time after the abolition of Article 370. Which is historic in itself.

The Chief Minister said that after the removal of Article 370, development work is being carried forward in Jammu and Kashmir with the basic mantra of the Prime Minister’s resolution, “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas.”

“Schemes worth Rs 8 thousand crore are being run for farmers in Jammu and Kashmir. More than 2 lakh 71 thousand poor families have been given the gift of pucca houses. 72 lakh people are being given free rations every month. Under the Mudra scheme, assistance of Rs 8 thousand crore has been provided to more than 3 lakh 63 thousand youth of Jammu and Kashmir in 2023-24. Now the youth of Jammu and Kashmir are becoming job givers, not job seekers,” he said.

The Chief Minister said that AIIMS and IIM have been established in Jammu and Kashmir under the leadership of the Prime Minister. He said that talks have been held with all the parties regarding the Shahpur Kandi Dam project.

He said that on the one hand, the BJP is doing development in Jammu and Kashmir, and on the other hand, the people of Congress, NC, talk about implementing Article 370 again in Jammu and Kashmir. The leaders of Congress, the PDP, and the National Conference have thrown Jammu and Kashmir into the fire of jihad for their personal interests. These parties are doing vote-bank politics by scaring the people. PDP has done many scams in this state.

The Chief Minister said that the people of Jammu and Kashmir have come to know the truth of Congress, the PDP, and the National Conference. The people of Jammu and Kashmir are not going to bring to power the parties that promote corruption, nepotism and separatism; they are going to uproot them.

He said that Congress ties up with the party that talks about negotiating with Pakistan regarding Jammu and Kashmir. Pakistan’s foreign minister is also supporting the manifesto of the National Conference and Congress. These people want to break the country. He said that no anti-national conspiracy of the opposition will work as long as Prime Minister Modi is in power.

Jammu and Kashmir is voting for its 90-member assembly in three phases. The first phase of voting was held on September 18, the other two rounds will be held on September 25 and October 1. Counting to take place on October 8.
