BJP candidate from Jammu Lok Sabha constituency, Jugal Kishore Sharma on Thursday (April 11) in a special interview with JK Media Group said that the  Prime Minister Narendra  Modi provided rights to Paharis, Valmikis, Gorkhas which earlier govts failed to give them in Jammu and Kashmir.

Talking about being given mandate for the third time by the  party high command, BJP candidate from Jammu Lok Sabha constituency, Jugal Kishore Sharma, said, “Since 2002, when I became minister I have served people with a feeling of servitude and I have balanced my time with public, party and workers. BJP has given me mandate for the third time as they have faith in me and I’m chuffed. I will again serve people with utmost dedication”.

Responding to a media query about the developmental works done during NDA and BJP candidate Kishore’s tenure, he added, “People will give much more votes in these LoK Sabha elections to BJP than 2019 because in these 10 years people have observed, examined, analysed PM Modi and his tenure. PM Modi’s popularity is increasing everyday because the developmental works he has done nobody has done in past 70 years. People have made their mind to only choose Modi and nobody. He has taken Bharat ahead in the world in just some years”.

Replying to opposition’s accusations on using PM Modi’s charisma to urge people to vote for BJP, Sharma said, “Why should not we take PM Modi’s name in the election campaigns because we respect, honour and are working under his leadership, he is also senior BJP leader and Prime Minister and we exist because of him. We have got the web of National highways, peace on borders, bunkers in J&K all because of PM Modi. If we have achieved confidence among people that Modi is the one who thinks of  poor, farmers today then why we don’t take his name. Modi ji and his team has a huge contribution in the betterment, development of J&K and we’re so proud of taking his name. The Congress should tell what they have to be proud of as they have nobody. I’m only working as a party worker”.

He added, “PM Modi has told us to only focus on serving people, make  govt schemes accessible for masses, complete pending developmental works and ignore opposition. The harder the opposition tries to keep people away from PM Modi, the more people are getting closer to BJP.

Responding about giving reservation to Paharis, rights to Valmikis, PoJK refugees, Gorkhas, BJP LoK Sabha candidate, Jugal Kishore Sharma said, “The is the difference between BJP and other parties as PM Modi is only concerned about society, citizens while others are worried about their families and not society”

Sharma talking about the people of Gorkha, PoJK, Valmiki community further said that these people were awaiting justice from a long time and PM Modi paid heed to them while other parties didn’t as he is the one who has  given them citizenship rights and honoured these people.The benefits these people have received after removal of Article-370, Congress is the only party which should be blamed as they bereft these communities of  such benefits”.

Criticising the J&K regional parties & Congress, Sharma said, “These have done politics for their interests but PM Modi have done only for the people welfare”.

“PM Modi has taken numerous steps for the crores of downtrodden of this country, which can be taken earlier but people know everything and they want to choose PM Modi for the third time again”, he stressed.
