VIJAYPUR JUNE 11- Former minister and Senior Vice President BJP, Mr Surjeet Singh Slathia today spelled out the achievements of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his nine year government, saying one of the major highlights has been restoration of peace in Jammu and Kashmir, making it safe destination for travellers and investors from across the world.

Addressing  people during Maha Jansamparak Abhyan, to mark the completion of the nine years of the Modi government, along with senior BJP karyakartas at    village Swankha  in the Ramgarh Assembly Constituency, Mr Slathia referred to the recently concluded three day Working Group meeting of G20 Conclave in Srinagar and said this reflected the changing times in Kashmir and peoples deep yearning for peace and stability’.

He said more than doubling of the investment in J&K to Rs 75,000 crore by this year end, five times the investment happened in the past 74 years holds promise about the huge turnaround in the economic and developmental scenario in the Union Territory. While the influx of tourists has crossed all time high mark of 1.80 crore last year, this year the numbers are expected to go over two crore, which reflects the success of various initiatives taken during the past nearly four years, post abrogation of Article 370, he added.

Mr Slathia also noted with satisfaction the efforts being made to harness J&K’s hydel potential optimally, saying the target to double the generation in the next three years and three times in seven years will make a huge difference as far as meeting the domestic requirements and in turn giving fillip to economic landscape of the Union Territory. He hoped that the power generation on Tawi basin will prove a game changer not only in terms of achieving self-reliance but also generating jobs for the local skilled, unskilled and educated work-force.

He said that Jammu and Kashmir is witnessing a new era of hope and promise with the era of despondency becoming a nightmare of the past. He dwelt in detail about various path breaking measures taken across Jammu and Kashmir during recent years with an avowed objective of ensuring development, creating infrastructural facilities, strengthening utility services and giving fillip to growth as a result of massive investments. He said the investments will manifest in industrialization on a mega scale thus opening vistas of opportunities for economic empowerment and generation of jobs for professionals, technocrats, educated unemployed besides skilled and unskilled workforce.

Mr Slathia asserted that the BJP believes in inclusive Jammu and Kashmir, with every segment of society, irrespective of region, religion, race or caste having equal opportunities to prosper and progress and equal rights in the governance. The people's power will triumph under the cherished agenda of Modi’s Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas, he maintained.

Mr. Slathia said the Prime Minister’s vision of Atma Nirbhar (self-reliant) Bharat is Sashaktikaran (empowerment) of all, irrespective of religion, region or caste. It is with this mantra that every BJP Karyakarta is reaching out to the people, making them aware about the schemes tailored by the government for their welfare, listen to their problems and make every effort in getting these resolved by taking up the grievances or issues with appropriate forums in the administration, he added.

The Senior Vice President emphasized the need for sustaining the prevailing era of peace and harmony, saying this is key to taking the Union Territory to a new era of progress and development. A situation has to be created towards growth in the traditional sectors for generating employment. Large scale investments mean wider opportunities to prosper, he said, adding that a grand beginning has already been made due to concerted efforts of the Centre and the UT administration and this momentum has to be taken to its logical conclusion, Mr Slathia added.

Prominent among those who spoke on the occasion included EX Minister Chander Parakash Ganga,Davinder Kumar Manyal ,DDC Chairman Keshav Sharma, DDC Member  Anita Choudhary, Asha Rani, Subhash Bhagat, Sarabjeet Singh Johal and others.
