BAGH: Federal Minister for Kashmir Affairs and Gilgit Baltistan Barjees Tahir on Friday said that voting for the Pakistan Muslim League-N in upcoming general elections would change destiny of Azad Jammu Kashmir as the party planned to undertake massive development projects in the region. Speaking to a gathering of party workers and supporters here, he said that the PML-N achieved victory in Gilgit Baltistan with the vision of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and efforts of the party workers. He said that he was seeing same kind of passion among the workers and the PML-N would emerge victorious in the elections of AJK Legislative Assembly on July 21. He said that system would be changed with the power of the vote and PML-N would start a new phase of prosperity in the state after the general election. Barjees assured that the PML-N leadership would resolve problems of people, adding people could not be kept backward for a long time. In Dhirkot, the minister said that Kashmiri Prime Minister Chaudhry Abdul Majeed was not right in saying that federal ministers were interfering in elections. “We do not come for interference but to let the people get rid of the PPP government in AJK. We are workers of Nawaz Sharif and come to improve the system,” he said. He said that Kashmir was a land of martyrs and ghazis and its people were not for sale, while Abdul Majeed was selling tickets. “We do not make false announcements while Abdul Majeed did empty talk in Baloch bye-election as he announced building of schools, colleges and roads but nothing happened.” – Trauma centres in every district – He said that the announcements of Nawaz Sharif were implemented as Changi Gala Road was being built at a cost of Rs 800 million and passport office was also being set up. In the next five years, Rs 50 billion would be spent on construction of roads in Azad Jammu Kashmir, he said. A trauma centre would be built in every district and district headquarters hospitals would be upgraded. He said that Rs 100 billion had been allocated for projects like Neelum Jhelum power project in the state. The PML-N intended massive allocations for Azad Jammu Kashmir projects, he said, adding that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif wished to launch projects of motorways and expressways in the area. He urged people to bring PML-N to power in the state for undertaking all these projects. “We have launched CPEC with the cooperation of China.” Barjees said there were two groups in Kashmir, one is led by Nawaz Sharif which wanted progress in Kashmir and the other wanted to keep people in dark. He said that the Kashmiri Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) had dismissed people with fake degrees because of which Chaudhry Abdul Majeed was raising hue and cry. He said that the upcoming elections would be held fairly and there would be no rigging as the BISP funds and fake CNIC cards would not be used. He said that Abdul Majeed had demanded that elections should be held under supervision of the army. “We are in favour of it and we also asked for the rangers in the Baloch bye-election.”
