Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge today announced five guarantees for the people of Jammu and Kashmir (J-K) if the Congress-NC alliance comes to power in the Union Territory.
Addressing an election campaign for alliance candidates in Anantnag, Mallikarjun Kharge guaranteed five lakh interest-free loan for women entrepreneurs and Rs 25 lakh health insurance per family, if the Congress-NC alliance is voted to power in the Union territory. Kharge said the Congress-NC government will give Rs 3,000 monthly to the female head of the family and promised to restore the provision of 11 kg of grain per person through the public distribution system.
Congress president further said the promise for rehabilitation of Kashmir Pandit migrants, which was made during the term of Manmohan Singh, will be fulfilled. He also added that the OBCs will also get their rights as enshrined in the Constitution. Kharge said there were one lakh jobs vacancies in Jammu and Kashmir but the current dispensation appointed by the BJP-led Centre is not filling them as ‘they want to keep people of Jammu and Kashmir poor’. He reiterated that the party will strive for restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir while promising to restore a bi-cameral legislature in the Union territory.
National Conference president Farooq Abdullah and other senior Congress leaders, including K C Venugopal and Subodh Kant were present during the election campaign.
