“Successive BJP governments at the Centre in the intervening times during the past over three decades brought about a discernible change in the security scenario notwithstanding the heavy dent caused by the Congress during intervals but the NDA government led by visionary Prime Minister Mr Modi took terror head on and succeeded in breaking the vicious ecosystem comprising secessionists and their sympathizers with determination and precision”, Mr Raina said.

Referring to the strides taken by India during the past eight years, domestically as well as globally, Mr Raina said the strong and decisive leadership of the Prime Minister is fast steering the country as Vishwa Guru and the people across the world are looking towards this great nation with hope and promise.

Mr Raina said India’s growth story owes its genesis to the visionary mantra of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Vikas and Sabka Prayas. This spirit is guiding philosophy for the millions of Karykartas who are contributing their bit in making India a vibrant nation, he said.

Senior leader Mr Devender Rana described the joining as a growing realization among politically sagacious leaders and workers that the BJP alone can bring about political stability in this part of the country, which has remained a theatre for deceptive and dubious politicians who perpetrated element of vested interest at every level in Jammu and Kashmir.

He said the joining of political leaders into BJP is a continuous process that reflects peoples’ firm belief in the progressive and inclusive policies of the party. This is the logical culmination of exploitative politics, which has to happen, as the ocean is the final destination for streams to merge, he added.

Mr. Devender Rana exuded the confidence that under the bold leadership of the Prime Minister, all the regions and sub regions of Jammu and Kashmir will grow as vibrant units with opportunities of progress to all, without any discrimination or any favour of appeasement.

Mr Rana said the Jammu region too is now at the centre stage of political and socio-economic empowerment, with the voice of the people being heard and wrongs and discrimination becoming a nightmare of the past.

Pradesh Vice President and Prabhari, Jammu Rural Mr Sham Lal Sharma said that Jammu and Kashmir is poised to a new era of peace, progress and development, as the Centre is committed to see the Union Territory through from the difficult phase it has undergone, especially during the past over three decades.

Mr Sharma said the BJP as a force to reckon with, adding that the past eight years in particular have shown how a new dimension could be given to nation building with visionary policies and a sense of devotion and dedication. India’s image has enhanced manifold across the globe under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi, he added.

Speaking on the occasion, senior BJP leader Mr Surinder Choudhry highlighted the growing image of India across the globe, saying that the country’s growth story owes its genesis to the visionary mantra of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Vikas and Sabka Prayas.
