  • The OROP demand was pending for decades. The people of India, our brave army personnel had faith in us and we were able to take a decision on OROP. We will always take decisions in the interests of our nation.

  • In Jammu And Kashmir, we want to follow Atal ji’s policies. In coming months Panchayat election will be held in Jammu and Kashmir.
  • “We believe in Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas. Thus, Housing for all, Power for all, Cooking for all, Water for all, Sanitation for all, Skill for all, Health for all, Insurance for all, Connectivity for all is our mantra.”
