Mr. Rana said due to relentless efforts of the Prime Minister, Jammu and Kashmir is on transformational mode with the industry and services sectors getting fivefold increase in investments, which is itself a record during the past 75 years.
That the Prime Minister himself launched the ambitious initiative involving investment of Rs 30,000 crore on April 24 this year is reflective of the keenness of the BJP to make Jammu and Kashmir as a model of change, he said, adding that more than doubling of the investment to Rs 75,000 crore is sure to give big fillip to industrial sector.
He said the transport, trade and commerce have held the economy in most testing times and promotion of these sectors is top on the agenda of the BJP especially as these generate a lot of jobs to skilled and unskilled workforce.
He said the Cell will endeavour for seeking timely interventions of all concerned for addressing the issues confronting these sectors. For this purpose, a close coordination with the stakeholders will be ensured, he said.
Mr Rana exuded confidence that the convenors of the allied cells will utilise their expertise in developing and promoting trade, commerce and industry optimally so that Jammu and Kashmir is steered to a new era of cooperation and progression.
The meeting discussed various issues pertaining to these sectors and decided to take them up with the Government at various levels to address them for accelerating the pace of growth in these sectors.
“Every compatriot has to play their pivotal role in realising the PM's vision of Naya Jammu and Kashmir, with opportunities of progress to all, irrespective of region, religion or caste", he said, hoping that the BJP cadre will be a facilitator in achieving this objective.
