Jammu, Oct 09: AamAadmi Party’s Jammu province election in-charge and Cabinet Minister in Punjab governmentHarjot Singh Bains Sunday said that successive governments that remained in office in Jammu and Kashmir have failed the people of the region which is crown of entire country and it is due to the failure of successive governments and political parties that all the sectors in Jammu and Kashmir including healthcare and education are in worst state.
