• Sat Sharma highlights people’s faith in Modi Government’s people-centric policies

JAMMU: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) held a felicitation ceremony at the party headquarters in Jammu to honour Devyani Rana, the newly elected BJP MLA from the Nagrota Assembly Constituency.

The ceremony was led by J&K BJP President & Rajya Sabha MP Sat Sharma (CA), accompanied by J&K BJP General Secretary (Organization) Ashok Koul, Rajya Sabha MP Er. Gulam Ali Khatana, Assembly Constituency Incharge & MLA Sham Lal Sharma, Co-Incharge Bharat Bhushan, and other senior party leaders.

Also present were J&K BJP General Secretaries Sanjita Dogra and Gopal Mahajan, along with MLAs Dr. DK Manyal, Surjit Singh Salathia, Yudhvir Sethi, Arvind Gupta, and Mohan Lal Bhagat, and a large number of party workers and supporters.

Speaking on the occasion, Sat Sharma (CA) said that the massive victory of Devyani Rana is a clear endorsement of the policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has transformed governance by prioritizing the poor, the needy, and the most neglected sections of society. He said that the people of Nagrota have reposed their faith in the BJP because they have witnessed development on the ground, not on paper.

Sat Sharma added that the BJP’s recent successes, including the impressive performance of the NDA and BJP in the Bihar elections, show the nationwide acceptance of Modi Ji’s people-centric policies and the strengthening trust in the party’s vision for a developed India.

Ashok Koul said that the party’s victory in Nagrota reflects years of dedicated work by BJP cadres who have reached the last mile to address local concerns. He said that this mandate is a testament to our commitment to serve the poorest and those living in the most difficult terrains. BJP will continue this mission without pause, he added.

Sham Lal Sharma congratulated Devyani Rana and assured full support for development initiatives. He said the BJP is determined to ensure holistic growth in Nagrota, from infrastructure to social welfare, and will work tirelessly to meet the aspirations of every resident.

Expressing her thanks, Devyani Rana said that she is humbled by the trust the people of Nagrota have placed in her. She assured every citizen of unwavering commitment, hard work, and transparent service.

Later, senior leaders led by Sat Sharma, along with Devyani Rana, visited the Mata Bawe Wali Shrine to seek divine blessings for a successful tenure dedicated to public service.
