KUPWARA: A senior delegation of J&K BJP visited several shelling-affected villages in the Karnah Tangdhar in Kupwara district to assess the on-ground situation and express solidarity with families affected by recent cross-border shelling from Pakistan.
The delegation included J&K BJP President Sat Sharma, Leader of Opposition in the J&K Legislative Assembly Sunil Sharma, BJP National Secretary Dr. Narinder Singh (MLA), J&K BJP General Secretary Dr. D.K. Manyal (MLA), and BJP Spokesperson R.S. Pathania (MLA). They were accompanied by District President Kupwara Rafiq Shah, senior leader Anwar Khan, local BJP district team members, and other senior party functionaries.
During the visit, the delegation toured various impacted areas including Dhani, Trungi, Chowkibal, Tarboni, Batpora, and other nearby villages in the Tangdhar sub division, that have faced the brunt of Pakistani shelling in recent days. The BJP leaders interacted extensively with local residents, especially those whose homes and properties have been damaged or whose lives have been disrupted by the constant threat of shelling.
Sat Sharma assured the residents that all their grievances have been duly noted. He said, “The BJP stands shoulder to shoulder with the people living in border areas. We will prepare a comprehensive report to be submitted to the Government of India to ensure that relief, compensation, and long-term rehabilitation measures are implemented at the earliest.” He further stressed the need for improved infrastructure and emergency response systems in these vulnerable regions.
Sunil Sharma, while interacting with locals, lauded their bravery and resilience, stating, “The people living on the borders of our nation are true patriots. Their courage and unbreakable spirit in the face of adversity is no less than that of a soldier defending the nation.” Dr. Narinder Singh emphasized the party's commitment to the region, saying, “This visit is not symbolic. We are here to listen, record, and act. The BJP is dedicated to finding long-term solutions for the safety and development of border communities.”
Dr. D.K. Manyal stated, “Immediate medical and psychological support is critical for families, especially children, exposed to trauma due to shelling. We will push for mobile health units and trauma counseling centers.” R.S. Pathania highlighted the policy framework required to support affected people. He stressed that the existing relief mechanism must be overhauled to respond swiftly and effectively in times of crisis.”
