Kathua, 14th August. Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh, Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science & Technology and other key portfolios, led a grand Tiranga Bike Rally in Kathua, Jammu & Kashmir, under the nationwide Har Ghar Tiranga campaign. The rally, aimed at fostering patriotism ahead of the 78th Independence Day, saw enthusiastic participation from local youth and a large number of citizens.

After the rally, Dr. Singh paid floral tributes to the statue of Dr. Syama Prasad Mukherjee, crediting Prime Minister Narendra Modi for abrogating Article 370, fulfilling Mukherjee’s vision of a unified India. He highlighted that the revocation of Article 370 is a fitting tribute to Dr. Mukherjee’s sacrifice for the nation, underscoring the ‘One Nation, One Constitution’ principle. The Minister also participated in a cleanliness drive around the statue as part of the ongoing Swachhta campaign.

“Kathua is a sacred land, as it was from here that Dr. Mukherjee was arrested before being taken to Srinagar, where he died under mysterious circumstances. The abrogation of Article 370 recognizes his struggle for a unified India,” Dr. Singh said.

Later, Dr. Singh held a Public Durbar for nearly two hours to address public grievances and demands. He directed district officers to resolve issues swiftly and provide updates on actions taken, reaffirming his commitment to transparent governance.

Residents were encouraged to share their concerns, and the Minister assured them of swift solutions, emphasizing his hands-on approach to grassroots issues.
