The meeting was attended by BJP National Secretary and MLA Dr. Narinder Singh, Deputy Leader of Opposition Pawan Gupta, other BJP MLAs, and party General Secretaries Sanjita Dogra, Baldev Singh Billawaria, and Gopal Mahajan.
During the meeting, BJP legislators discussed various issues affecting the people at the grassroots level and expressed concern over the continued neglect of public grievances by the National Conference government. The MLAs also highlighted constituency-specific problems and developmental requirements, emphasizing the urgent need for timely intervention by the administration.
Sat Sharma, while addressing the meeting, said that BJP remains fully committed to safeguarding the interests of the people of Jammu and Kashmir and ensuring balanced development across all regions. He stated that the people of Jammu are increasingly feeling ignored under the present dispensation, while several critical issues concerning infrastructure, civic amenities, roads, power supply, water availability, healthcare, and employment continue to remain unresolved.
Sat Sharma asserted that the BJP will strongly oppose any attempt to discriminate against the Jammu region in matters of development, resource allocation, or governance. He said that the aspirations and rights of the people of Jammu cannot be compromised under any circumstances. He emphasized that BJP legislators will continue to act as the strong voice of the people both inside and outside the Assembly and will vigorously raise every issue concerning public welfare.
Ashok Koul deliberated on the series of organizational programmes from June 5 to June 21 under the nationwide campaign commemorating 12 Years of Vishwaas, Vikas and Jan Kalyan under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He shared that the programmes include special outreach initiatives, plantation drives, Swachh Bharat Abhiyan activities, Pragati Path Yatra, Viksit Bharat Sampark Sammelan, Jan Kalyan Shivirs, International Yoga Day, exhibitions showcasing the achievements of the Modi Government, workshops on natural farming, and several other public engagement activities. He asked the BJP legislators to actively spearhead these programmes in their respective constituencies, transforming them into mass outreach campaigns.
Dr. Narinder Singh stated that the BJP has always stood for equitable development and transparent governance. He said that there should be no bias in the implementation of development projects and welfare schemes. He added that the government must ensure fair treatment to Jammu and avoid any policy decisions that create a sense of discrimination.
Pawan Gupta said that BJP MLAs are consistently raising public issues, but the government has failed to deliver on many fronts. He said that growing public dissatisfaction over neglected civic infrastructure, delayed development works, and administrative inefficiency reflects the government's inability to address the genuine concerns of the people.
