SAMBA: MLA Samba Mr Surjeet Singh Slathia today described the Congress led INDI Alliance as an amalgam of self seekers and opportunists coming together for their inherent hate for Prime Minister Narendra Modi and sabotaging his mission of Viksit Bharat. “The fundamental difference between the BJP and INDI Alliance is that the former believes in the ‘Nation First’, party second and self-last while the later believes in self-first, family second, party third and the Nation last”, Mr Slathia said while addressing a Public Rally At Village Sarna Block Nud Samba.
He said the BJP’s focus on Jammu and Kashmir has not only transformed the Union Territory but made it a proud and equal partner in the country’s growth story. Mr Slathia, who is also BJP Pradesh President,said the philosophy of ‘Nation First’ is a guiding principle for national security and social harmony, which is an eyesore for those who have been struggling to show some semblance of relevance in national politics. But for the lust of power, the INDI Alliance has nothing in common. To achieve their sinister political objectives, the alliance of opportunists have not even been hesitating in compromising with the honour and pride of the nation, he added.
Mr Slathia said the track record of the BJP since its inception as Jana Sangh, especially during the past nearly ten years, stands testimony to its pledge of ‘Nation First’, as the party has placed national interest at the forefront in an era where ideologies and priorities differ. The pledge ‘Nation First’ is an intent and commitment to the inclusive growth of the society as per cherished objective of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas besides progress of all, regardless of caste, creed or region. The Prime Minister has translated this vision as reality on ground, which is why India is seen as a vibrant country across the world, he said, adding that every Indian feels a sense of pride across the continents for the stature the nation has achieved in the comity of nations.
Mr Surjeet Singh Slathia referred to the path-breaking initiatives taken under the visionary leadership of Yashasvi Narendra Modi during the past ten years, saying the focus has been on building a resilient nation that can overcome obstacles and emerge stronger. Alongside development, technological advancement, economic reliance, the BJP has been successfully striving for fostering a sense of patriotism and pride among citizens, encouraging active participation in the nation's development. This is the mantra for Atamnirbhar-Viksit Bharat and making India a developed nation by 2047, he added.
Prominent among those present on the occasion included DDC Ramesh Chander, Women President BJP Samba Sonia Thakur, Mandal President Karan Singh, Ex Sarpanch Puran Chand Sharma, Suman Lata, Sunil Choudhary, Surinder Singh and others. Earlier, MLA Mr Slathia kick started the macadamization of Link Road at Village Nankay Chak under City Town Scheme at an estimated cost RS 25 Lakhs.
