AIIMS issue: ACC to hold candle light march on Wednesday

To press for the demand of AIIMS in Jammu region, AIIMS Coordination Committee (ACC) will hold a massive candle light protest march on Wednesday ahead of 3-days long bandh in Jammu.
"The ACC would organize a massive candle light protest march on July 29, which would start from Ambphalla Chowk, Near Central Jail, at 7 PM to press for the demand of AIIMS in Jammu", AIIMS Coordination Committee (ACC) and president of the JKHBA, Jammu, Abhinav Sharma told reporters here today.
Sharma urged all sections of society to participate in the proposed rally so that a right message goes to those who have been harming the interests of people of Jammu region to keep their Kashmiri masters in good humour.

Lashing at the BJP, he said "BJP is pushing the people of Jammu region to the wall and forcing them to take to streets to get their demand for the establishment of the sanctioned AIIMS in Jammu fulfilled".
The ACC reposed full faith in the BJP ministers when they on June 18 reassured us through a written commitment that they would get necessary orders on the establishment of AIIMS in Jammu passed.
"We withdrew the bandh call and also suspended the chain hunger strike hoping they would do the needful latest by July 20, but the BJP left the people of Jammu region disappointed", he added.

"It breached our trust as well as people's trust and forced us to resume the suspended agitation", Sharma said, adding that the ongoing movement in Jammu region for the establishment of AIIMS is becoming more and more popular with each passing day.

Sharma further said the youth of Jammu are joining the movement in large numbers and added that the ACC has also planned to involve University and College students and School children in the movement.
He cautioned the coalition government not to test the patience of the oppressed, suppressed and discriminated against people of Jammu region.
"If the ruling coalition sincerely wishes that things in Jammu remained normal, it has no option left but to implement the written commitment in letter and spirit before July 30 so that the ACC and people of Jammu regions did not enforce their three-day-long bandh call from July 31", he added.
