The BJP today put its finger on the statements made by Pradesh Congress committee recently at a public function. The PCC had accused the BJP-PDP government of exploiting the people of the state and misleading the populace away from its failures.According to a statement issued to KNS, pointing out the ambiguity in PCC chief’s words, state spokesperson Arun Kumar Gupta said, “Congress cannot simply make random statements in the public domain over the coalition government exploiting or misleading the people of Jammu and Kashmir. If they think the government has exploited the citizens, they need to clearly say what they even mean.”
Gupta also charged the Congress of ineffective administration in the state of sixty-seven years. He said, “Anyone from Jammu division can explain the gross neglect by Congress towards the winter capital for sixty-seven years. Their administration over successive decades left Jammu in chaos. There is no foundation to the governance structure here. Jammu has seen underdevelopment, unemployment, poor literacy and so much more that has led to a relationship of general mistrust between the citizens and the administration.”Providing insights on BJP’s corrective measures for bettering the trust deficit that exists in the state, the state spokesperson said, “The BJP has been working hard on the ground for the last six months. The BJP has simply not been adding members for the sake of numbers. The BJP members are being trained at the moment such that the benefits of Central Schemes can percolate down to the Booth level.”
“The problem in our state is that people here are not even aware of the benefits that the government avails to them. The members of the BJP will be working closely at the ground level to educate the citizens about the visionary schemes such as Jan Dhan Yojna, Suraksha Bima Yojna, Sinchai Yojana etc started by the central government. Once educated of the benefits, the respectable citizens of the state will automatically start availing of these schemes and the change that the BJP is trying hard to bring will become visible,” Gupta added.
