Waffa also said that “the Coalition govt has no achievements to show in Reasi as all its tall claims and promises made to people have proved phoney.””The present regime has miserably failed to carry forward the development of Reasi constituency which was initiated by the previous PDP government led by Mufti Mohammad Sayeed’s regime in the state,” he said and accused government of doing discrimination with area as there is shortage of health services , basic infrastructure in schools he alleged.
He said that there is reiterating PDP’s resolve to restore lasting peace in the region without compromising with the dignity and honour of the people of the State, he said that policies and programmes of the party were guided by the wishes and aspirations of the people. Pointing towards non availability of health facilities in the constituency, he said that health facilities were almost nil and people have to travel Jammu or Srinagar to get treatment.
