KISHTWAR, Aug 30: Jammu and Kashmir National Conference Senior leader and Spokesperson for Chenab Valley Region Ajeet Bhagat criticize the BJP- led government as the centre has badly failed to control rising price and growing unemployment, causing immense hardship to the common people across the country, Despite repeated promises of economic prosperity and Job creation, the reality on the ground is entirely different,
The Senior National Conference leader said that the price of essential commodities including food items, cooking gas, edible oils, vegetables, medicines, electricity, and other household necessities, have increased substantially over the years, The continuous rise in inflation has eroded the purchasing power of ordinary families, forcing them to struggle to meet their daily needs
At the same time, unemployment has emerged as one of the gravest challenges facing the nation, millions of educated youth are wandering from pillar to post in search of job, Vacancies in Government departments remain unfilled, while opportunities in the private sector have not grown at the pace required to absorb the increasing workforce, The dreams and aspirations of the younger generation are being shattered due to the lack of employment opportunities,
Bhagat said that the situation is particularly alarming in Jammu and Kashmir, where unemployment among educated youth remains a serious concern, The lack of adequate industrial investment, slow recruitment processes in Army Police and Para Military services and shrinking economic opportunities have further aggravated the problem, Rising price coupled with unemployment have pushed many families into financial distress in the country,
Instead of addressing, these pressing issues, the BJP leadership continues the divert public attention towards non- issues, The people of the country want answers in inflation, unemployment, economic slowdown and declining purchasing power, not political rhetoric,
The Senior National Conference leader said the Centre Government must take immediate and effective measures to curb inflation, generate large -scale employment opportunities and fill vacant Government posts, support small businesses, strengthen agriculture, and provide relief to the common people,
Bhagat said the nation cannot progress when the youth remain unemployed and common citizens struggle under the burden of skyrocketing prices, The Government must act decisively before the economic difficulties faced by the people become even more severe.
