JAMMU, March 8 : Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh said here today that with the patronage and support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Udhampur-Kathua-Doda is among the country’s most developed constituencies in last 10 years and now it is the time to devote the third 5-year term to consolidate the gains of last two terms and transform this region as among the most attractive destinations of the country.
Dr Jitendra Singh was speaking soon after his arrival this morning for the first time after having been officially nominated the BJP candidate for Udhampur Lok Sabha constituency for the third consecutive term.
On his arrival, from the airport right upto his Parliamentary Constituency office at Gandhinagar, a massive gathering of BJP workers and supporters from his constituency were waiting for him.
As soon as Dr Jitendra Singh’s cavalcade moved out of Jammu airport , there was a huge rush of supporters resulting in a traffic jam for over half an hour. People in thousands, particularly Bhartiya Janta Yuva Morcha (BJYM) members from all the districts of Udhampur, Kathua, Ramnban, Kisthwar and Doda, burst crackers to celebrate the declaration of Dr Jitendra Singh as candidate and showered petals on him from all sides.
Addressing the workers at his Parliamentary office at Gandhi Nagar and later speaking to media, Dr Jitendra Singh hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi, National President J P Nadda and the Party High Command for having reposed faith on him for the third time to represent this prestigious Lok Sabha Constituency. He also thanked the J&K BJP leadership for having proposed his name to the Parliamentary Board and said that above all he was thankful to the grassroot workers and particularly the youth workers in far-flung areas of the constituency whose overwhelming support and love had contributed to the party decision.
