BJP rallies against govt's 'anti-people' policies in J&K

Jammu: The BJP in Jammu and Kashmir took out a protest rally here on opening day of Darbar offices today against “anti-people” policies of the state government. “People of the state are suffering due to inadequate supply of ration, black marketing of LPG and delay in holding urban local bodies elections despite repeated assurances by the state government,” BJP state president Shamsher Singh Manhas said during the car rally.

He said people were finding it difficult to survive in view of the sky-rocketing prices of essential commodities and monthly ration released to a family through government depots was too less. He alleged that the National Conference-led coalition government was appeasing separatist leaders in the state. PTI
