Asks Omar to spell out scheme of financing for funding electoral promises

KS News Desk 

Jammu, Mar 11: Chairman Peoples Conference Sajad Gani Lone on Tuesday asked Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to spell out the scheme of financing for implementing electoral promises made in National Conference's  party’s manifesto for 2014 Assembly polls.

Speaking in the Assembly, during discussion on the budget, Lone said that the budget endorses Naya Kashmir narrative propagated by BJP over the past five years.

“Whatever they have negated politically in the past five years has been reflected in the budget,” Lone said.

Sajad Lone said that J&K government would require Rs 60000 crore for implementing promises made by NC in its manifesto.

“What is the scheme of financing for these promises?  Where will you raise this money? You cannot fulfill these promises unless you have been promised a big package by the Centre,” he said.(KNO)
