BJP will end rule of three families forever in J&K: G Kishan Reddy

Jammu, Sep 27: As Jammu and Kashmir enters into the last phase of polling with voters in 40 assembly constituencies casting their vote on 1st October, Union Minister of Coal and Mines and Jammu and Kashmir Assembly election in-charge said that the BJP is not hungry for power and aims to ensure that the positive transformation that has come in after the abrogation of Article 370 will continue.
While inspecting the arrangements and logistics at the Maulana Azad Stadium in Jammu where Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the BJP Vijay Sankalp Rally on 28th September, G Kishan Reddy said “We will end the rule of 3 families forever; now the ‘aam janta’ (common people) of Jammu and Kashmir will rule. Power will not go into the hands of three families so that the state can be saved from their destruction. After the removal of Article 370, everything has been snatched away from the family-oriented parties, so it is natural for them to be furious.”
Kishan Reddy said that the atmosphere is in favour of BJP. and that they will perform exceedingly well in the Jammu division. He said that the BJP will ensure that the era of stone pelting, organised hartal and terrorist activities should not return. “The hands holding the laptops will continue to progress. We have to take this development journey forward. The public has to decide whether to get out of the hands of Abdullah, Mufti and Congress or not.” He added, “BJP has no A or B team, our only team is the people of Jammu and Kashmir.”
Kishan Reddy went on to state that change is visible and everybody can feel the difference from where Jammu and Kashmir stood during the rule of three families to where it stands today. He said “People’s rights were suppressed. The laws of the Union were not implemented here. Under the guise of 370, the rights of the poor were looted, there were organised hartals, schools were burnt down, and Pakistan’s flag was hoisted. This has completely stopped now.”
Kishan Reddy said that it was due to Nehru’s wrong policies that the public were suffering the brunt of Article 370. He said “Article 370 was Jinnah’s constitution, in place of which Hon’ble PM Modi has implemented Baba Saheb’s constitution. The supporters of 370 want to talk to Pakistan and end reservations; it was due to Article 370 that the money that Government of India would contribute to the region was not audited. Now for the last five years, every penny is being accounted for.”
Kishan Reddy also said that more than 60 of our candidates are in the fray in the Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections. Today we are proud that the party is contesting elections in every district. The public will give BJP a chance based on work; we are confident that BJP will get the support of the public.
He said “BJP has ushered in an era of balanced political, social and economic development by ending systematic discrimination with the Jammu region. The people of Jammu were discriminated against systematically for decades, and this time Jammu will get due justice for the decades of discrimination”. He also pointed out that after delimitation, the number of seats in the Jammu region has also increased from 37 to 43. We will set up three regional development boards in Jammu.
G. Kishan Reddy said that the BJP manifesto contains a specific plan to develop the Jammu region through regional development boards. He said that other initiatives include boosting tourism in areas like Doda, Kishtwar, Rajouri, and Poonch, along with border tourism on the International Border and Line of Control. He said, “Our manifesto also promised economic growth by establishing an IT hub in Jammu as a Special Economic Zone (SEZ), a Pharmaceutical Park in Udhampur, and an Ayush Herbal Park in Kishtwar.”
He further mentioned the BJP’s efforts to promote traditional arts, such as Basohli painting, which received a Geographical Indication (GI) Tag in March 2023, and the development of religious circuits around shrines like Vaishno Devi and temples like Raghunath and Shivkhori. He assured that upon coming to power, the BJP would implement its Sankalp Patra (manifesto), increase pensions, and fulfil promises made to youth, farmers, and women. “We are here for service, good governance, and the welfare of the poor. The public will support us based on our track record and vision for the future.”
