Srinagar, Nov 27: Bharatiya Janata Party national general secretary Tarun Chugh Sunday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi led government has brought about a dramatic transformation in Jammu and Kashmir and empowered its people.
Reacting to the remarks of PDP chief, Mehbooba Mufti that everything would be brought back with interest whatever BJP has snatched on August 5, 2019, Chugh said “it is time Abdullahs and Muftis who have ransacked the state recklessly now realise that their time is over.”
“People in J&K have started enjoying the fruits of the development policies and programmes of the Prime Minister and a new era has come about in J&K,” he said.
He said converting “J&K from a terror state to a tourism destination is a big achievement of the Modi.” The Jammu and Kashmir is on the path of development and there is still a long way to go while the party hasn’t snatched anything as claimed by the Mehbooba, he said.
“When her (Mehbooba’s) party was in power in J&K, she had given nothing except ruin and plunder, for which she will now have to give a full account,” Chugh said, adding that Mehbooba herself knows that BJP has made progress in Jammu and Kashmir, but she is making such statements under frustration.
“Modi led BJP government brought J&K on the path of development. Under privileged people were given rights, hundreds of centrally sponsored schemes were introduced, poor people were benefited and importantly millions of tourists this year visited J&K UT which is a record breaking”, Chugh claimed.
He said that the Modi government has also given rights to women while giving grain to poor people as well. He said the entire country is on the same page in terms of national security and integrity.
Hitting at dynastic politics of J&K, the senior leader BJP said “three families have looted and ruined J&K for the past several decades, for which they will now have to answer.
“AIIMS and other big institutions are being opened in Kashmir now but Mehbooba does not see this,” he added.
