Devyani Rana files nomination as BJP candidate for Nagrota addressed massive rally
Nagrota,October 19 (Scoop News)- In an emotionally charged moment filled with both pride and poignancy, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today witnessed an overwhelming display of solidarity and sentiment as Devyani Rana, daughter of late Devender Singh Rana, filed her nomination papers as the party’s candidate for the Nagrota Assembly by-elections.

Ms Devyani Rana along with the party leadership was greeted by thousands of supporters at a grand rally organized in Nagrota following her nomination. The rally, marked by tears of remembrance and cheers of hope, transformed into a collective expression of faith — faith in continuity, in leadership, and in the enduring bond between the Rana family and the people of Nagrota. It was also an occasion for the people of Nagrota to once again gather under the banner of the Ranas, a family synonymous with compassion, commitment, and credibility, a family torch bearer of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas Sabka Prayas Sabka Vishwas.

The rally reverberated with slogans “Bharat Mata Ki Jai” “Rana Sahib Amar Rahe” and “ Jb Tak Suraj Chand Rahega Rana Sahib Ka naam Rahega”.

Addressing the mega rally, Ms Devyani , with voice choking with emotion, said, “My father, Devender Singh Rana, had a dream — a dream of a prosperous, progressive, and inclusive Nagrota. I promise to fulfill all his incomplete works and serve the people day and night. I will leave no stone unturned to justify the faith that you have shown in me.”

She described Nagrota as family of her father and said that this nomination is not just an opportunity to serve the people but it is a sacred responsibility to carry forward her father’s mission.

“I am daughter of Rana Sahib who was always there to support anyone without considering his religion, caste and creed. I will follow his footsteps and fulfill all his election promises which he could not fulfill due to his sudden demise,” Devyani Rana told the gathering amid high pitch sloganeering in her favour and in praise of her father.

She said the people of Nagrota are her family and “I have taken a pledge on the hand of my father in his last days that I will work for the betterment of the people of his constituency”.

“With the continued blessings of the people and their affection, we will make Nagrota a model constituency — a living example of what BJP stands for and what Rana Sahib always envisioned: a vibrant, self-reliant, and developed Constituency.”

Ms Devyani said that the BJP is not just a party but a family that stands for performance and people-centric governance. She said she was overwhelmed by the support and solidarity of the people, adding that she will endeavour for fulfilling the dreams of her father, who envisioned Nagrota as a model of inclusive and sustainable development.

J&K BJP President Sat Sharma, Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma, General Secretaries Sanjita Dogra and Gopal Mahajan, Assembly Election Incharge & MLA Sham Lal Sharma, and Co-Incharge & DDC Chairperson Bharat Bhushan, among other senior leaders and legislators addressed the rally.

He said that Nagrota holds a special place in our vision of progress, and the BJP will ensure that no developmental project remains incomplete.
