What Happened To BJP’s Promised Statehood To Jammu: Rana

National Conference provincial President Devender Singh Rana Thursday assailed BJP for compromising with honour, pride and aspirations of Jammu, saying all tall promises proved hoax with people finding themselves downgraded as secondary class citizens in two Union territories.

“What happened to promised statehood for Jammu, which the people were assured by the BJP in order to fulfill their aspirations as they, according to the party, felt that they had not got their due share in governance,” said Rana while interacting with media persons here.

He said people of Jammu in turn got abject neglect and deprivation from even basic amenities. He regretted that people of Jammu were being meted out a treatment as if they were secondary class citizens.

Describing Dogras as architects of the state of J&K, Rana lamented they were being neglected and relegated to secondary position.

“This has generated anger, discontentment and disillusion among people, which is needed to be understood and addressed by those holding the reins of the governance,” he said and referred to the unfulfilled promises made by BJP with Jammu.
