Jammu, February 23: JKPCC Chief Tariq Hameed Karra today asked BJP to explain whether the commitment to restore statehood was another "Jumla of Modi government.
Addressing a largely attended workers convention of District Jammu rural at Muthi today Karra questioned the local BJP for its stand over the continued neglect of most popular demand of people of entire Jammu & Kashmir by the centre government and was it like several other jumlas of Modi government, which were never fulfilled.
He added that Congress would not rest till the centre government fulfills the commitment of statehood ,made on the floor of parliament, before the supreme Court and the people of J&K, during recent assembly elections also.
Most surprising is the total silence of local BJP unit and party's MLAs after getting huge mandate from people. Is it not a continued deceit of the centre over the most fundamental demand of general public and the right of people?
He said people are suffering in the absence of powers with the elected government and various sections like unemployed youth, daily wagers, contractual, adhoc, consolidated temporary & NHM employees, anganwadi workers, asha workers, spos etc are awaiting justice from the government.
He said Dogras are worst hit & most hurt by the loss of identity, status, dignity and the rights to protect their land, jobs and natural resources, which are being looted and taken over by influential outsiders besides invasion on their dogra culture, language and peaceful co- existence.
