National Conference leaders Ankush Abrol, Joint Secretary Jammu Province JKNC; and Dr. Vikas Sharma, Secretary Central Zone JKNC & Coordinator Jammu District (Urban) today held a series of meeting with Pahari students studying in Jammu University and city colleges and sought support for NC (India Bloc) candidate for Rajouri-Anantnag Parliamentary seat.
Both the NC leaders visited the University and Colleges and had one to one meeting with the Pahari students urging them to bring about change in the political system of the country. “Under the regime of BJP at Centre, all sections of society including the unemployed youth are struggling hard in the absence of job opportunity and lack of government support for entrepreneurial activities,” Abrol said. He alleged that the political party in power has totally spoiled the earning pattern of locals of Jammu as all the Govt works including contracts of sand, bajri, wine shops, parking spots have been allotted to the people from outside JK UT jeopardizing the living standard of general public Jammu and Kashmir and drastically dwindling their livelihood.
Abrol asked the Pahari youth to take part in the voting with full enthusiasm and extend their full support to NC candidate Mian Altaf Ahmed who is contesting from Rajouri-Poonch-Anantnag Constituency.
“Its high time to get rid of the BJP misrule and its duty of youth to play a major role in this scenario by supporting the India Bloc candidate and also motivating others to follow the same,” said Dr Vikas Sharma.
He further said that all the important positions in the UT Govt sector and universities have deliberately been given and occupied by officers from outside JKUT under a well-knit conspiracy to make the lives of people here quite miserable with none to listen to their genuine grievances, Dr Vikas added.
He mentioned that NC was the only option before the people for representing the issues of J&K people in Parliament.
