Doda:Accusing the Abdullahs, Muftis and Gandhi’s of ruining J&K, Prime Minister Narendera Modi said that terrorism is counting its last days in the UT and that the upcoming elections will decide the future of UT.
Addressing a massive gathering at Doda, Modi as per news agency, said that National Conference, PDP and Congress promoted separatism and terrorism in J&K for the past seven decades only to keep their “shops running.”
“Let me tell you that terrorism is counting its last days in J&. The upcoming elections in J&K will decide the UT’s future,” Modi said and praised the party workers for travelling from Ramban and Kishtwar to attend his rally. “I really appreciate your great enthusiasm.”
He said that post-independence, J&K became an eyesore for the foreign powers and they started hatching conspiracies. “After that, family rule politics destroyed J&K,” he said.
He said National Conference, PDP and Congress failed to hold Panchayat polls in J&K since 2000. “It was the BJP government that ensured democracy reaches to grassroots level,” Modi said, adding that “Block Develop Council and District Development Council elections were held first time and youth came to fore.”
“Now the upcoming elections is a direct fight between three families and J&K youth who are chasing their dreams,” he said. Modi said that youth who were picking stones to throw them at police and forces are now thinking big. “Stones are being used to construct big buildings,” he said.
Praising the BJP candidate from Kishtwar Shagun Parihar, Modi said that Shagun’s both parents were killed by terrorists. “We gave her a ticket to contest polls. She is our tool against terrorism,” he said.
He said that it was the BJP who will restore Statehood to J&K. “We are committed to make J&K terror free region and a paradise for tourists,” Modi said. He said J&K will be a global film destination and there will be a direct train from Delhi to Srinagar soon.
Taking a jibe at NC, Congress and PDP for their manifestos, Modi said people have to choose between BJP’s Sankalp Patra and other parties’ manifestos that advocate return of the bad old days again. “Other manifestos call for return of Article 370 and roll back of reservations to Paharis, Gujajrs and Bakerwals. They also advocate snatching of voting rights of Valmikis and Dalits,” Modi said
