“The BJP has failed to provide even the basic amenities to the people. The party leadership is expert in selling dreams as all its promises of ‘achhey din’ have fallen flat. People are paying heavy taxes on food grains and even milk products,” he said, while addressing a meeting of Jammy and Kashmir Youth Congress at the party headquarters here in Jammu.

Emphasising on the need to counter BJP’s alleged “fallacious” agenda for the people of Jammu and Kashmir, he said the BJP had shown callousness in its efforts of providing basic facilities like healthcare, civic edifice like roads, education and power, water and public transport.

Wani went on to say the people of Jammu and Kashmir would give the governing party a befitting reply in the coming elections.

The Congress unit chief called upon party workers to rally behind the leadership and strengthen the party ahead of the planned 3,570-km Kanyakumari-to-Kashmir Bharat Jodo Yatra.
