BJP vice-president Avinash Rai Khanna today asked party leaders and workers in Jammu and Kashmir to gear up political activities to make people aware about various welfare schemes of the Modi government.
Chairing separate meetings of senior leaders, ministers, MLAs, MLCs and district unit presidents of Jammu province, Khanna said, "District presidents should gear up political activities and depute party activists to every nook and corner to make the people aware about the centrally-sponsored welfare schemes."
"They should also tell people about the measures being undertaken by the state government for benefit of the poor, women, youth, farmers, border people and the downtrodden," said Khanna, MP and in-charge of party affairs in the state.
The meeting was also attended by the party's state president Sat Sharma.
Khanna asked district presidents to immediately form their respective district teams. He said that although BJP is in power now but it does not mean that "our activists do not have any responsibility".
"The BJP-led government at the Centre is launching one project after another, one welfare scheme after another for the development of the country and welfare of its citizens and similarly in J&K," he said.
He said the coalition government is making all efforts to provide good governance with zero tolerance towards corruption. He asked them to mobilise the public for the party's 'Vikas Sushashan Sankalap Rallies' and get factual details about the welfare schemes.
Khanna was apprised of the party's organisational elections which have recently concluded. The ministers briefed him about various development and welfare activities being initiated by the PDP-BJP coalition government.
Khanna also felicitated the newly-elected district presidents and expressed hope that they would work wholeheartedly to come up to the expectations of the party leadership.
