JAMMU: J&K BJP Urban Local Body Cell held a meeting of its Urban Local Body Cell, at the party headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu, to discuss organizational strengthening, expansion of grassroots outreach, and enhancement of public connectivity through local body units across the Union Territory.

He said that BJP activists are committed to public service 365 days a year and remain fully prepared to face elections whenever they are announced. He stressed that party workers must intensify their outreach at the grassroots and expose the failures, anti-development policies, and negative governance model of the NC government before the public.

Sat Sharma highlighted the BJP’s remarkable performance in the previous Urban Local Body elections, stating that the party had emerged as a dominant force by securing the maximum representation across 36 Urban Local Bodies and one Corporation in Jammu & Kashmir. He said this massive public support reflects the trust people have in BJP’s development-oriented governance and nationalist ideology.

Ashok Koul spoke in detail about the organizational framework of the party and announced the convenors and co-convenors for newly constituted units at various existing local body levels to enhance efficiency and public outreach. He said that strengthening booth-level and local body structures remains a priority for the organization to ensure better implementation of party programmes and policies at the grassroots.

Baldev Singh Billawaria said that the Urban Local Body Cell provides one of the best platforms for public service and direct interaction with the people. He stressed that BJP workers must remain proactive ensuring that welfare initiatives reach every section of society.

Ved Sharma said that the ULB teams should further expand their organizational network at the ground level for better implementation of public welfare programmes. He stressed the need for coordination with other cells to effectively address the issues of people.

Pawan Singh deliberated on the activities and achievements of the Urban Local Body Cell and assured the leadership that all organizational programmes and assignments would be implemented effectively at the grassroots level.
