Union Home Minister Amit Shah has said that decisive control over terrorism has been the biggest achievement of the Central Government for the first time since the abrogation of article 370. Addressing the 83rd Raising Day function of the CRPF in Jammu, the Union Home Minister said the J&K Government has successfully managed to ensure over 33,000 Crore rupee investment even as democracy has been taken to the grass-roots level in the Union Territory.
Mr Shah further said, today, democracy is flourishing across J&K as we have a Sarpanch and Panch in every village. Besides, National Highways are being upgraded and all modern means are being employed to uplift J&K with record achievements being made in every segment. The Home Minister also said that seven new medical colleges and two AIIMS will soon be functional in Jammu and Kashmir even as all efforts have been made to provide a corruption-free government to people.
While praising the CRPF, the Home Minister said that be it maintaining law and order, fighting terrorism in J&K, or eliminating Naxalites, the force has maintained its tag of being the country’s best police force and we will never forget the valour and courage of this force. Shah said the Centre is committed to take CRPF to new heights and lace the force with the latest gadgets and technology. Mr. Shah arrived in Jammu last evening on a two-day visit.
