Doda, 13 June (H.S.): The District Congress Committee Doda today organised an impressive Jai Hind Sabha followed by Jai Hind Yatra at Doda today which was led by working president Raman Bhalla accompanied by former MLA Incharge Doda Dina Nath Bhagat, DCC president Sheikh Mujeeb, former MLC Sham Lal Bhagat, IYC Secretary Maa n Singh Rathore and other senior leaders.

The rally was part of the nation wide campaign of the party to pay respect to the armed forces for their bravery and valour in carrying out operation Sindoor besides questioning the flip flop foreign policy & other policies of Modi Government including denial of statehood to J&K.

Addressing the gathering Bhalla said that BJP has been politicizing the achievement & bravery of armed forces in carrying out operation Sindoor but the Modi Govt is escaping from answering vital questions relating to the security and integrity and honour of the country.

He lashed out at the Modi Government for betraying the faith of the people of Jammu and Kashmir after getting mandate on the basis of assuring early statehood, after Assembly elections. More than eight months have passed to Assembly elections but the Prime Minister didn’t utter a word on restoration of statehood during his recent visit in Jammu.

Bhalla said that BJP’s lust for power even after failing to secure mandate in Jammu and Kashmir, despite all sorts of opportunist alliances , has kept a mess in Government but dual control system under UT. He said a parallel system of Government despite Assembly elections to fulfill lust of BJP to run Government through remote control system, is harmful to democracy & to the overall interest of people.

He also referred to the present mess of the issue of Naib Tehsildar selections, Bhalla said that it was the result of the same dual control system on the administration otherwise it should not have resulted into inconvenience to the candidates. He said during Congress NC Government, when he was Revenue Minister, the candidates for this post were exempted from Urdu .It was settled then by Congress and now, when other official languages are there alongwith Urdu, all languages should be at par to give equal rights to all class of people.

In his address former MLA Dina Nath Bhagat questioned the silence of PM Modi over the barbaric treatment of Indians by the Trump administration and their repatriation in chains besides Trump’s insulting language against India claiming ceasefire by him.
