This is not the first time he has ignored Jammu\u2019s identity, culture, and tourism potential,\u201d Dr. Chowdhary said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">He alleged that this reflects a deeper pattern of discrimination by Kashmir-centric political parties, who \u201cdeliberately alienate Jammu\u201d not only in tourism promotion, but also in equitable job opportunities, developmental projects, and political representation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Chowdhary further stated, \u201cLeaders like Omar Abdullah must remember they represent the entire Union Territory, not just one region. The people of Jammu are equal stakeholders and deserve equal opportunities in every sector. This step-motherly treatment will no longer be tolerated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">He also accused the National Conference leadership of engaging in \u201cdouble-faced politics\u201d \u2014 seeking votes from both Jammu and Kashmir during elections, but neglecting Jammu\u2019s interests once in power.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cDuring campaigns, they make grand promises to Jammu\u2019s people, but after the elections, their real priorities become clear. Such politics of discrimination and neglect will be exposed, and the people of Jammu will hold them accountable,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Chowdhary urged Omar Abdullah to publicly clarify why Jammu was excluded from his tourism pitch and to assure the region\u2019s residents of equal treatment in future initiatives.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0a2e\u0a3e\u0a2b\u0a3c \u0a15\u0a30\u0a28\u0a3e, \u0a07\u0a39 \u0a16\u0a2c\u0a30 \u0a24\u0a41\u0a39\u0a3e\u0a21\u0a40 \u0a2c\u0a47\u0a28\u0a24\u0a40 \u0a2d\u0a3e\u0a38\u0a3c\u0a3e \u0a35\u0a3f\u0a71\u0a1a \u0a09\u0a2a\u0a32\u0a2c\u0a27 \u0a28\u0a39\u0a40\u0a02 \u0a39\u0a48\u0964 \u0a15\u0a3f\u0a30\u0a2a\u0a3e \u0a15\u0a30\u0a15\u0a47 \u0a07\u0a71\u0a25\u0a47 \u0a26\u0a47\u0a16\u0a4b\u0964 Jammu, 02 August 2025 BJP spokesperson Dr. Tahir Chowdhary has slammed Chief Minister of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, Omar Abdullah, for repeatedly sidelining Jammu in his public outreach and tourism promotion campaigns.
