"The leadership of AIIMS Coordination Committee should understand that AIIMS like institution take their own time (in its setting up) and cannot be accomplished by waving magic wand," Bhartiya Janata Yuva Morchja's (BJYM) state president Suresh Ajay Magotra said.
"It should resolve the issue through negotiation for which BJYM makes appeal to the government for immediate initiating the dialogue with AIIMS CC, so that people of Jammu stands united in their fight to get their deserving rights", Magotra said.
Reiterating that BJP is committed for setting up AIIMS in Jammu, Magotra called upon the AIIMS Coordination Committee leaders not to take hard line stand of calling for bandh as it would not be in interest of Jammu region.
"As far as BJP is concern, the party as an organisation and its leaders as individual are committed for the popular cause and empowerment of Jammu as BJP got the outstanding mandate from Jammu," he said.
"Joining the coalition Government was in fact respecting the mandate given to the party by the people and BJP stands committed to the holistic development of Jammu and Kashmir particularly Jammu, which has been ignored by all successive Governments till date", he said.
He assured the people of Jammu that like it succeeded in getting a Central University in Jammu, it will get AIIMS as well.
