Lambasting the PDP-BJP coalition regime for allegedly betraying people of Jammu in general and unemployed youth in particular, Team Jammu today called for a strike on November 6 to lodge a protest against “discriminatory policies” of the present dispensation.
“Every section of society is bearing the brunt of the discriminatory policies being propagated by the coalition but the youth are the worst victims. Selection lists of the J&K Public Service Commission and other recruitment bodies are glaring example of discrimination against qualified and deserving youth of the Jammu region,” Zorawar Singh Jamwal, chairman of Team Jammu, told reporters here.
“The Kashmir-centric parties in the connivance with BJP leadership have hatched a conspiracy to frustrate Jammu youth by rejecting them in all spheres of life,” Jamwal said, added that “brain drain” had started from Jammu due to the government’s discriminatory policies.
Cautioning people of the region against the dangerous game plan of the PDP-BJP government, Jamwal said it was hell bent on demoralising nationalist forces to facilitate anti-national forcesto accomplish their nefarious designs.
Meanwhile, Vikramaditya Singh, the scion of the erstwhile royal Dogra dynasty, has also called upon people of Jammu to jointly protest against “discriminatory policies” of the coalition to highlight the government’s failures in addressing demands of the region.
In a statement, Vikramaditya Singh, who recently resigned as PDP MLC, said it was high time the people of Jammu exhibited their strength by holding a strong protest on the day one of the opening of Civil Secretariat here on November 6.
