Biggest threat to Jammu is from opportunist leaders: Harsh Dev
Dec 08, 2022
UDHAMPUR: Former minister and senior AAP leader harsh Dev Singh has urged the people to beware of opportunist politicians, saying biggest threat to Jammu is from these leaders.
"While Jammu region continues to lose and to suffer despite the incessant chest thumping of the saffron regime, the people of Dogra land need to give a serious thought for finding a viable alternative to the deceptive politics of power hungry politicians. It is sad that the opposition leaders of Jammu region are abandoning their respective parties one by one and falling in the lap of either BJP or Kashmir centric parties," Harsh Dev said while addressing a public meeting in Chenani.
Singh said that Jammu region has often been cheated by its own leaders. "In 2014, the Dogra land gave massive mandate to the saffron party and ensured victory of its 25 Assembly candidates with both MP seats also falling in its kitty. But what did it do? It conceded the CM's chair for full term accepting the leadership of PDP whom they had vowed to decimate during the said elections. Those who were projected as monsters by BJP were embraced by it as partners," he added.
Harsh Dev said now again, it's the saffron party which is reportedly providing tacit as well as overt support to the new Kashmir based parties to emerge. "The JKAP and PC are granted audience by top leadership of the country without any hassles and have easy access to the corridors of power in New Delhi. These parties have also been allotted Estates Bungalows at Gandhi Nagar for their political office only adjacent to the residential ‘A type' accommodation presently held by the State BJP president," the former minister added.
It is high time therefore that Jammu recognizes the true face of these political opportunists behind their deceptive facades and supports those who have stood firm in the face of gravest of provocations and despite all odds, pulls and pressures", asserted Singh.
