Says Congress striving hard to strengthen secular and democratic values in country

“Congress is a responsible and constructive opposition, it shall continue to oppose BJP Govt for rising unemployment, economic crisis, lack of development and also expose its (BJP) false promises and betrayals,” JKPCC Working President Raman Bhalla said on Saturday while interacting with aggrieved people of Bahu constituency.Bhalla rued that people in the country especially Jammu and Kashmir are confronted with the ugliest situation due to the policies adopted by Modi Govt, but the Congress as a responsible and constructive opposition shall make the BJP Govt accountable and answerable to people for betrayal and failing them on all counts.

Bhalla alleged that BJP has made J&K a Laboratory where it is doing experiments from time to time to serve its vested political interests while abandoning people of their democratic rights after snatching everything they had. After realizing that it (BJP) has failed to achieve what it had expected after 5 August 2019, several drives were started to divert the attention of the people from real issues, matter of the fact remains, people won’t change their opinion and never forgive BJP for what it has done in J&K, he added. He questioned the delay in restoration of statehood and democratic rights despite assurances in Parliament by Modi Govt.

Bhalla speaking on the occasion said that it is the Congress alone which has served the people to the best of their ability, as that the party feels duty bound to the wellbeing of the people in J&K. He said Congress has always taken care of urges and aspiration of every section of the erstwhile State and it will continue to safeguard their interests. Congress will become number one party in J&K in the upcoming elections. Winds of change are sweeping through J&K. In a big boost to the Congress party’s prospects, more and more people are aligning with us to take the message of love and prosperity forward. This is evident that the voice of the people of the UT is in favour of the Congress and that our march is on the right track, towards power,” Bhalla said.

Bhalla said Congress worked tirelessly to instil the democratic values among its workers while striving hard to strengthen the secular and democratic values in society in the country. He said history provides proof that the Congress made all out efforts to percolate the sense of responsibility, significance of the unity, sacredness of democratic values and its institutions as well as the sanctity of the Constitution down to the grassroots level. Describing BJP-led Government at the Centre and the administration in the Union Territory (UT) as anti-people, he regretted that instead of solving basic problems of the people, the BJP has been pursuing politics of hatred and divisive. “It is high time to educate people about the evil designs of the BJP to save the future of our younger generation,” he added.

Bhalla said Congress Party worked for decades to foster social tranquility, brotherhood by uniting people in tried to make people submit to the nation. The top leadership of the party has been trying to provide opportunities to people of all hues, communities and beliefs without any discrimination. It worked tirelessly to instill the democratic values among its workers while striving hard to strengthen the secular and democratic values in society in the country, added Bhalla. He said history provides proof that the Congress Party made all out efforts to percolate the sense of responsibility, significance of the unity, sacredness of democratic values and its institutions as well as the sanctity of the constitution down to the grassroots level. The democracy in this country grew stronger by days due to the untiring efforts of the Congress Party. And today if the Indian democracy is looked up to for emulation, the credit goes to the Congress, said Bhalla.
