BJP plans to induct 25,000 members from Una Sadar
UNA, SEPTEMBER 1
A meeting of the Una block BJP organisation was held today at the party office in Lalsingi village near Una city to finalise the schedule for the membership drive which will be launched from Monday.
Una MLA Satpal Singh Satti said the party workers would undertake the BJP membership drive in the entire Assembly segment from Monday just after Prime Minister Narendra Modi takes his party membership. He said a target of inducting 25,000 members has been set in the constituency, including 200 members in each of the 11 wards of Una Municipal Corporation.
The BJP MLA said party workers had been delegated duties to visit each and every household in the Assembly segment and fill the membership formats. During this activity, the party workers will also be educating the masses regarding the developmental and welfare schemes of the Narendra Modi government. He informed that interested persons can give a missed call on cell phone number 8800002024 to get the membership of the BJP.
Later, addressing media persons, Satti alleged that the Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu-led government in Himachal Pradesh had failed on all fronts. People were feeling fleeced by the Congress party, which had come to power by making false guarantees. He charged that the price of diesel and petrol had been hiked by the Congress government soon after coming to power. While the government was making a hue and cry regarding a financial crisis, an army of chairpersons and vice chairpersons has been raised and their honorariums have been enhanced many fold.
Liquor, drugs, mining and forest mafia is rampant in the state under political patronage and the government has turned a blind eye on them, alleged Satti. He said the Congress government had closed down more than 1,100 government institutions including 800 schools, HIMCARE, a public welfare scheme initiated by the Jai Ram Thakur government to provide cashless health care to weaker sections of the society, has been made non-functional, while free 300 units of electricity being provided by the BJP government has also been done away with.
The BJP leader said the state’s pensioners have yet to receive arrears, which had accumulated to hundreds of crores of rupees and the employees, who dared to raise their voice against the government for fulfilling their just demands, are being served with notices. He said the dictatorial Congress regime will not last long and the people will show them the way out.
