IIOJK Congress protests against authorities’ anti-people policies
Jammu: Congress chapter in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) organised a massive protest rally at Ramgarh tehsil in Samba district against the anti-people policies of the authorities.
According to Kashmir Media Service, President of the Congress chapter in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), Tariq Hamid Karra, addressing the protest rally said the people of Jammu and Kashmir continue to be deprived of their democratic and constitutional rights.
He further said Congress will continue to fight for the restoration of statehood by greater public participation, adding the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government has failed to honour its repeated assurances regarding the restoration of statehood and is unnecessarily delaying the process.
Tariq Hamid Karra denounced the authorities over the rising prices of essential commodities, petrol, diesel, and other daily-use items and highlighted the hardships being faced by common people, farmers, labourers, traders, and middle-class families due to the continuous increase in the cost of day to day living.
Referring to repeated paper leak incidents and rising unemployment, he said the future of the youth is being compromised due to administrative failures, saying thousands of deserving candidates are being deprived of fair opportunities, while joblessness continues to increase.
He demanded strict action against those responsible for irregularities and urged the authorities to create a transparent recruitment mechanism and adequate employment opportunities for the youth.
