At a rally organized to mark nine years of BJP rule, the Union minister asked why no previous governments took up the development of the region even though river Devika has been there for centuries.
Dr. Jitendra Singh said under PM Modi, Jammu and Kashmir is given the top most priority in everything that is the reason J&K is competing in terms of development with the developed states and UTs in India.
CSIR- Indian Institute of Integrative Medicine, Jammu, has organised the event as part of its 'One Week One Lab Campaign'.
The Union Minister said the nine years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government have been, without any doubt, youth centric but what is required is the change of mind set for optimum utilisation of avenues and various initiatives provided for the youth of this country.
During the event, Dr. Jitendra Singh said India is not far from getting an Oscar having the best film production policies in place like the film facilitation process.
India is fast becoming more and more tech savvy, particularly after Narendra Modi took over as the Prime Minister because he is personally promoting science and technology innovations, he said.
The Minister advised them that time has come to create our own narrative so that the false narratives created by our adversaries do not gain upper hand.
Dr Singh said the programme could be given the format of a community listening where a large number of people sit together and observe the occasion as a festival.
The Minister further said that had Sardar Patel been given a free hand, the history of the Indian subcontinent would have been different.
