JAMMU: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Jammu & Kashmir held an urgent meeting at the party headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu, under the leadership of J&K BJP President Sat Sharma, Leader of Opposition in J&K Assembly Sunil Sharma, and BJP General Secretary (Organization) Ashok Koul.
The meeting was attended by office bearers, party MLAs, District Presidents, and senior leaders from Jammu and Samba Districts to take stock of the massive losses inflicted by the recent incessant rains, cloudbursts, and flashfloods across the Union Territory.
The leaders noted with deep concern that widespread damage has been caused to lives, livestock, standing crops, residential houses, public infrastructure, roads, bridges, electricity and water supply lines. This unprecedented situation, they said, has gravely disturbed the daily life of people in both rural and urban belts.
Speaking at the meeting, Sat Sharma said that the calamity has left many families shattered and immediate relief is the foremost priority. “The government must act swiftly and release adequate funds to provide timely compensation to the affected families. BJP demands a special relief package, over and above the sanctioned funds, so that every victim gets justice. Our party cadre will stand shoulder to shoulder with the distressed families in this hour of crisis,” he asserted.
Sunil Sharma urged the elected representatives and party leaders to persist with their dedicated efforts in serving the flood-affected families, as they have been doing relentlessly since the very first day of the tragedy. He said that the party MLAs and cadre should act as a bridge between the public and administration. The people must feel that BJP is with them in every difficult situation. We will ensure that the government machinery moves quickly to restore normalcy and mitigate the suffering of masses, he said.
Ashok Koul emphasized that BJP workers have always led relief efforts in times of natural calamities. He said that BJP cadre must once again rise to the occasion. Along with the administration, NGOs and other agencies, BJP cadres will extend every possible assistance to the needy. The nation-first spirit of the party demands that we remain vigilant and proactive until complete normalcy is restored, he said.
While discussing the assessments and inputs provided by the MLAs and other leaders, it was also stressed to vigorously pursue the release of SDRF funds at the earliest and press for additional central assistance to rebuild the affected regions.
