Timely decision in view of people's aspirations: Dr Darakhshan

Welcoming the amendments to the J&K domicile laws, Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday said it will ensure that all jobs were being reserved for “residents” of the Union Territory. In a statement, BJP spokesperson Darakhshan Andrabi termed the amendment as a “timely decision taken by the central government keeping in view the aspirations of the people.”  Andrabi said the government was willing to go to any extent to “usher new era of prosperity, development and peace in J&K.” She said the party was committed to give a “new Jammu and Kashmir” to people who have been subjected to “political exploitation, corruption and militancy by the ruling dispensations during the past 70 years.” “New job opportunities are being created in the UT in the days to come and this amendment will benefit local unemployed youth a lot”, said Andrabi.
