RAJOURI May 12
Mian Altaf Ahmed, former minister and NC candidate from Anantnag- Rajouri Parliamentary constituency on Sunday said that the very creation of National Conference was meant for providing justice to poor, scheduled caste, scheduled tribe and other underprivileged section of society and looking into the track record of this ‘aboriginal’ party of J&K, no one can deny that it always remained steadfast in providing succor to the needy. The NC leader was addressing a public meeting here at Dhangri in Rajouri district. In the meeting, Rattan Lal Gupta, Provincial President JKNC, Jammu, Ch Liaqat, DDC Chairman Rajouri Naseem Liaqat, Manzoor Malik, DDC Dhangri Th Rameshwar Singh, Vijay Lochan, Th. Yashu Varhdan Singh, Rakesh Singh Raka, Deeraj Sharma and Joginder Singh. Mian Altaf Ahmed categorically said that National Conference is the party of poor, weaker sections, farmers and underprivileged sections of society which always stood for their rights and cause. He said that people have by now understood well that no other party can ensure their welfare like the National Conference and therefore NC’s wave is being witnessed not only in Anantnag- Rajouri parliamentary constituency but all across the Jammu and Kashmir leading to restlessness among its opponents. Main Altaf said that those sitting at helm these days are indifferent towards the poor strata of the society as under their rule inflation is touching the ceiling, jobs have vanished, no policy for youth, handful of recruitment processes have been entangled in corruption cases, industry is on crutches, and peace for which the incumbents are trumpeting from each forum is also in tatters as terrorism graph is up again especially in Poonch, Rajouri and other districts of Jammu region.
Rattan Lal Gupta, Provincial President, JKNC, said that Land to the Tiller brought in by Sher-i-Kashmir Sheikh Mohd Abdullah was the testimony to the fact that his party truly believed in philanthropy and took every possible step to ensure justice to downtrodden society.
Rattan Lal Gupta appealed to the people of Anantnag Rajouri Parliamentary Constituency to support and vote Mian Altaf Ahmed in order to protect and safe the future of their coming generations.
Naseem Liaqat DDC Chairman Rajouri also sought people’s support in the election claiming that only NC has the will and power to mitigate the problems of the people and provide good governance as party in power has given a dismal performance by neglecting the aspirations of the masses.
Earlier, at the outset of the meeting, Th Rameshwar Singh, DDC Dhangri apprised senior functionaries of the party about the hardships being faced by general public in absence of basic amenities.
Others present included Bansi Lal Sharma Block President Dhangri, Ch Tufail Ahmed, Block President, Parvez Jat Block President, Ch Ismail Block President Doongi and panches and sarpanches etc.
