JAMMU, Aug 20: Jammu Chamber has described BJP as "Jaichands of Jammu" and have issues a detailes press statement.
The statement is as follow
"The Chamber of Commerce and Industry Jammu announced on Aug 17 through a Press
Note as below:
The President Sh. Rakesh Gupta announced and conveys to the people in Kashmir though Media that if by Friday , August 19 , 1 pm the Jammu Chamber does not get a positive message from representatives of Kashmir Civil Society for intra region dialogue followed by a joint delegation of representatives from three regions of Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh to call on Hon’ble CM Mehbooba Mufti with a charter of demands if any for consideration and necessary action as the Chamber reposes full faith in our democratically elected CM, the Jammu Chamber shall be left with no option but to call for a Jammu Bandh on Saturday Aug 20 in support of Peace , in support of Communal Harmony and against the agenda of the anti national elements in the state of JK.
On Aug 19 after no positive message for intra region dialogue the Chamber call for a Jammu Bandh for Aug 20 saying as below:
The President Chamber of Commerce and Industry Sh. Rakesh Gupta made it very clear that the Jammu Province shall observe a voluntary one day Bandh on Saturday, 20 August “ IN SUPPORT OF PEACE & COMMUNAL HARMONY & AGAINST ANTI NATIONALS & TRAITORS”.
The sole purpose of Intra Region dialogue was to convey to the Sepratists that the people of Jammu and Ladakh were not with them in their Anti India Campaign and peace is imperative for development of the state.
After this the Jaichands of Jammu became active and started posting on social media especially Whatsapp against the Chamber that Chamber is Supporting the anti nationals. It was mentioned nowhere in the posts on whatsapp and social media that its was Bar Associations decision. It is pertinent to note that The Bar Association neither supported nor opposed the bandh call which can be verified from the Office Bearers of the Bar Association but it was a handful job some selfish people working against the interests of Jammu Region.
The BJP’ s State President Sat Sharma felt that it was the right time to defame and tarnish the image of the Jammu Chamber as Jammu Chamber for the last 2 years only did what was in the best interest of Jammu and never listened to his dictates. He hatched a conspiracy. In the Press Conference at noon on Aug 19 he said that :
The letter which has been issued by Kashmir Chamber of Commerce asking Jammu Chamber to go ahead with Jammu Bandh on Aug 20”
Mr.Sat Sharma state President BJP who is a chartered accountant by profession has let down the name of all the educated class as he does not know the difference between a LETTER and a PRESS NOTE. Letter meant a personal letter to Jammu chamber whereas Press note means to the Media.It was a Press Note from Kashmir Chamber and not a letter and anyone can give a press note.
Its very clear from the press notes of Jammu Chamber on Aug 17 and 19 that the Bandh on Saturday Aug 20 in support of Peace , in support of Communal Harmony and against the agenda of the anti national elements in the state of JK. But this conspirator Sat Sharma tried to prove that Jammu chamber was Anti National for his vested interests.
I list below the reasons why this conspiracy was hatched against the chamber by Sat Sharma and some people claiming to be advocates of Bar Association:
April 24 , 2015 – The Jammu Chamber gave call for Jammu Bandh on April 24 as the state BJP for the greed of power had surrendered AIIMS for Kashmir. The bandh was complete and BJP was left red faced.
May27 , 2015 – The Jammu Chamber again gave call for bandh as the Union Home Minister Sh. Raj Nath Singh was visiting jammu. It was a joint call by the Chamber and Bar Association headed by the BAR as AIIMS Co ordination committee and was again a complete bandh for which the state bjp faced a tough time from the central command of bjp.asking them their strength on the ground.
July 31 ,2015 – Again a Joint Call by AIIMS Co ordination Committee and BJP for 3 days and later extended for 3 days more to get AIIMS for Jammu.
Aug 5 ,2015 – Communication received from Union Ministry initiating process for AIIMS at
Jammu. The Bar President was sincere and dedicated for the cause of Jammu but few politically linked and funded advocates tried their best to keep the movement alive by asking not to call off the bandh. But the Bar President in the interest of Jammu alongwith Jammu Chamber & Chairman Transport called of the Bandh as we were convinced that will got AIIMS and proved later.
Oct 2015- The truck attack incident at Udhampur created a 2008 like situation. BJP was again speechless and their inaction to contain the situation forced the Jammu Chamber President to fly to Srinagar without any security cover and address a Press Conference to difuse the situation jointly with Kashmir Chamber.
April 2016 – The student carrying Indian Tro Colour inside the NIT Srinagar Campus brutally bean up by Police. The Dy. CM issued a statement “It was a mild Lathi charge” None from state BJP went inside the NIT Campus. It was again the Jammu Chamber President who went to NIT Srinagar and met the Director on May 6. It was Jammu Chamber who condemned the statement of Dy.CM Nirmal Singh saying mild lathicharge.
July 24,2016 – The Union Home Minister Sh. Raj Nath Singh visits Srinagar because of the law and order situation in Kashmir. Only the Jammu Chamber President along with other office bearers reached Srinagar braving the worst situation without security cover and meet the home minister to update his about the ground realities.
Since June 2104 in two years no Income tax raids were allowed by Jammu Chamber. The Sales Tax department too faced a tough time whenever they decided to harass any member of Chamber of Commerce.
In the last 40 days of law and order problem in Kashmir where Amarnath Yatra was disturbed not a single statement by state bjp President against separatists.
Chamber of Commerce & Industry is the only business associations in Jammu at provincial level which has a democratic process of election through ballot. The jaichands want to weaken it but they will never succeed.
The state bjp won the assembly seats just because of the goodwill and trust of our PM Narinder Modi but the state BJP has failed to live up to the expectations of the common man. Their lips are sealed not even a single statement against the Sepratists, not even a single statement against killings of our police force or soldiers. Why?????
Amarnamth ji ki yatra reduced from 5 lac to 2 lac , yatris beaten langars burnt, no word from state bjp SAT Sharma why ???
The state BJP after being elected has taken a complete U turn. The issues and promises on which they were elected not even one has seen the light of the day. Why ???
Time to re think who is for Jammu and who is not. Time is proving and will prove but little time left or everyone shall regret."
