Banihal: The Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee Chief, Vikar Rasool Wani, on Thursday said that Congress is capable of defeating fake narrative, political exploitation and will ensure the defeat of BJP’s divisive policies.
“People in the entire country are yearning for change, which is set to happen after the 2024 elections in the country. Congress Party has served the people to the best of its ability and shall continue to fight for safeguarding democratic institutions, which have become a prime target of the Modi Govt for the lust of power,” he said.
He made these comments while addressing an impressive rally at Mangit in Block Khari of the Banihal segment, where he was accorded a grand reception by the people.
Addressing the gathering JKPCC Chief assured the people that the Congress Party shall continue to fight for safeguarding democratic institutions in the country, which have become prime targets of the BJP Govt for the lust of power. He said that since the BJP assumed power at the Centre everything started reversing especially the developmental process, employment generation has received severe setbacks, skyrocketing prices of essentials, and many other issues confronting people due to the misrule and mismanagement on the part of Modi Govt.
JKPCC Chief said though BJP Govt is making tall claims and doing everything to show that J&K is prospering and people are happy and termed these claims contrary to the ground situation, the matter of the fact is, people have been pushed to the wall in every respect, confronting with economic distress and extreme unemployment.
