Poonch, SEP 08:
Leader of Opposition in the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly, Sunil Sharma, today led a senior BJP delegation on a mass public outreach programme ‘Jan Samvad’ in Poonch and Rajouri, taking the party’s campaign against the failures, misgovernance and anti-people policies of the National Conference-led government directly to the people.
Sunil Sharma was accompanied by senior leader Adv. Vibodh Gupta, District Presidents S. Gurdeep Singh Khalsa, and Dev Raj Sharma, former MLC Pardeep Sharma and other senior BJP functionaries.
During the outreach, the BJP delegation interacted with several public delegations, listened to their grievances and took detailed feedback on issues confronting the people, particularly relating to development, basic public services, employment and welfare.
Sunil Sharma said the programme marks the beginning of an extensive grassroots campaign by the BJP to expose the widening gap between the tall promises of the NC before elections and its performance in government.
“The NC came to power making big promises to the people, but today the public is asking where is the promised development, where are the jobs and where is the relief in their day-to-day problems? The growing public dissatisfaction is a direct reflection of the government’s failure to deliver,” Sunil Sharma said.
He said that instead of addressing people’s genuine concerns, the NC government has failed to provide effective, accountable and responsive governance. “The BJP will not allow the government to hide its failures behind political rhetoric. We will go to every district, every constituency and every section of society, listen to the people and bring their issues before the government and the people of Jammu and Kashmir,” he asserted.
Sunil Sharma said the grievances raised in Poonch and Rajouri clearly demonstrate that people are increasingly questioning the functioning and priorities of the NC government.
“The BJP is not sitting in offices and making political statements. Our leaders and workers are reaching the people, hearing them directly and standing with them in their hour of need. The people’s voice will become the BJP’s strongest weapon against NC’s misgovernance,” he said.
He further announced that the public outreach would be expanded across Jammu and Kashmir, with senior BJP leaders undertaking visits to different administrative districts to highlight the government’s failures and ensure that genuine public issues are raised at every appropriate forum.
“The people of Jammu and Kashmir deserve performance, accountability and development—not excuses and empty promises. The BJP will remain the strongest voice of the people and will continue to hold the NC government accountable,” Sunil Sharma said.
