The promises made with the people of Jammu, Ladakh and Kashmir by PDP BJP in the State have not been fulfilled as yet, as a result the people of the all the three regions feel alienated. He termed the current unrest in the Valley as the outcome of the misrule and anti-people polices of the PDP BJP Coalition, who have promised a lot to address the concerns of the people, but nothing was done on their Part even the AOP between the Coalition Partner’s( PDP -BJP) have proved to be a political gimmick to betray and keep the people guessing that something would happen, but the people have realized the have been back stabbed by PDP & BJP for the sake of power.

Reminding the people of Kargil and Ladakh about the steps taken by the UPA I and UPA for the overall development of the Ladakh Region, PCC Chief said that successive UPA regimes left no stone unturned to bring the Ladakh region at par with other parts of the Country, but the present Govt at Centre seems to be in a state of confusion on this front also and is not able to carry forward the works sanctioned by UPA Ist and UPA IInd, such as Zojila Tunnel and other important developmental projects. He said this is unfortunate that Centre has not been able to understand the basic issues confronting people of not only Ladkah Regions, but Jammu and Kashmir regions also, who are grappled with great difficulties in respect of development, employment etc.Those who addressed the gather included CLP Leader Nawang Rigzin Jora, MLA Vice President Haji Ab.
