Congress win is important for people, he said, as the Modi Govt is openly ruining the country. More so, people in Jammu & Kashmir have been battered by the ugly policies of the BJP government. Starting from the Smart City Program which is a huge scam, BJP is trying to gain goodie points from the public.

They snatched the statehood and left the people in a helpless state, stated Bhalla.

He encouraged the members to connect with the locals and solidify a strong support base. He asserted that all members of the party must focus on the upcoming local body elections. It is high time that people get better opportunities, infrastructure and facilities. This cannot happen without the defeat of corrupt BJP leaders.

Sawhney further said that the people are in dire need of a government, authority which will take action in their benefit and for their welfare, he said.
