Jammu, Sep 26 (KNO): Senior Congress leader and All India Congress Committee (AICC) incharge J&K, Bharatsinh Solanki, Thursday exuded confidence that the Congress-NC coalition is set to achieve a landslide victory in Jammu and Kashmir.
Addressing a press conference, Solanki as per the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), attributed the BJP's desperation to their dwindling fortunes in the state. “The BJP has deployed its top leaders, including the Prime Minister, Home Minister, Defence Minister, and UP Chief Minister, to desperately cling to power by any means necessary."
He emphasized that this desperation stems from the BJP's awareness of their dwindling popularity. Solanki exposed BJP's hidden agenda including exploiting J&K's natural resources and allowing big businesses to loot the state.
“This startling revelation has raised concerns among J&K's citizens, who will not tolerate any compromise on their State's sovereignty and economic well-being,” he said.
He stated that the people of J&K will not be swayed by BJP's tactics and will teach the Saffron Party a lesson for its misdeeds during the last 10 years in Jammu and Kashmir.
Solanki announced that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will address two rallies on September 27, while party leader Priyanka Gandhi will also address rallies on September 28.
“The people of J&K will decide their own future and they will reject BJP and its deceitful tactics,” he said, adding that “We have presented a chargesheet, but BJP leaders have failed to respond, effectively acknowledging the allegations against them.”
Lambasting the BJP for betraying the people of Jammu and Kashmir, he asked, “On what grounds do they now seek votes from the people? BJP has reneged on its 2014 promises”.
“The people of J&K will reject BJP's tactics. Congress and NC are united in our determination to serve J&K's interests,” he said.
Solanki questioned BJP's delivery to J&K since the Parliament elections, asking: What has BJP delivered to J&K since then? What additional packages have they offered? and Why have they failed to respond to the chargesheet presented by Congress?
Solanki lambasted BJP for betraying the people of Jammu and Kashmir, reneging on its 2014 promises. He emphasized that BJP's broken promises have eroded trust among the people.
He further said that Congress and NC are united in their determination to serve J&K's interests. “Congress leader Rahul Gandhi remains committed to protecting the wishes and aspirations of J&K's people.”
He emphasized that Congress will prioritize the state's emotional integration and economic empowerment.
Solanki also condemned BJP Lok Sabha member Kangna Ranout's statement demanding the implementation of three farm laws previously repealed by the government. “This statement exposes BJP's anti-farmers mindset and disregard for the welfare of J&K's agricultural sector.”
He expressed concern over BJP's silence on the Darbar Move issue, which promotes emotional integration and economic empowerment in J&K. “Their silence is deafening, and we demand answers.”
“As the state prepares for a new government, the people will not be swayed by BJP's tactics. Congress and NC remain united in their determination to serve J&K's interests, prioritizing the state's sovereignty, economic well-being, and emotional integration,” he said—(KNO)
