JAMMU: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Scheduled Tribe (ST) Morcha, Jammu and Kashmir, organized a programme at Gujjar Desh Charitable Trust, Jammu, to commemorate the birth anniversary of Bhagwan Birsa Munda and to highlight his immense contribution as a great Adivasi hero and freedom fighter who championed the cause of tribal dignity, rights, and identity.
Ashok Koul, General Secretary (Organization), J&K BJP, chaired the programme, which was also addressed by Haroon Choudhary, former ST Morcha President, Choudhary Abdul Ghani, President BJP ST Morcha, senior party leaders, and a large number of tribal representatives and activists from across Jammu.
Paying glowing tributes to Birsa Munda, Ashok Koul described him as a symbol of tribal pride, unity, and resistance against injustice. He said that Birsa Munda’s struggle against colonial exploitation and social oppression continues to inspire the movement for empowerment of tribal communities even today. He said that the Modi government has given special focus to the welfare of Scheduled Tribes, ensuring they are part of India’s development journey with dignity and opportunity. He emphasized the BJP’s commitment to upliftment and empowerment of tribal communities in Jammu and Kashmir.
“Birsa Munda’s ideals remind us to work with dedication and unity for the progress of every tribal family. It is our responsibility to strengthen the tribal voice in every forum and fulfill Birsa Munda’s dream of equality and self-respect,” Koul said. Haroon Choudhary recalled Birsa Munda’s lifelong struggle for justice and socio-economic reform. He said that Birsa Munda’s vision continues to inspire efforts towards the socio-economic upliftment of Scheduled Tribes across the Union Territory.
Choudhary Abdul Ghani said that the BJP, under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has launched historic initiatives for the welfare of STs, from forest rights to education, health, and political representation. He called upon the ST Morcha workers to take government schemes to every tribal household.
Other prominent leaders present included Riaz Choudhary, General Secretary ST Morcha, Choudhary Jan Mohammad, and several senior Gujjar and tribal leaders who reaffirmed their pledge to continue Birsa Munda’s mission under the BJP’s leadership.
