Srinagar, July 18: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national general secretary Tarun Chugh who is also party In-Charge for Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh, on Thursday said the party was all prepared for coming assembly elections in J&K.
Addressing party workers in Banihal, Chugh expressed confidence in securing an all-round victory. “The BJP is ready. Whenever there will be elections, our workers are ready. From Banihal, the BJP is starting the journey of victory,” he said.
He exhorted the party workers to leave no stone unturned in their efforts to make the BJP victorious.
The BJP leader criticised Abdullahs and Muftis for “failing” to serve the people of Banihal. He accused them of using the region for their vested political gains. “Many have formed governments, but they have not done any good for Banihal,” he said.
Highlighting the BJP’s success in recent elections, he said, “In the last three Lok Sabha elections elections, Congress has been exposed. Rahul Gandhi has lost more than a dozen elections.”
Chugh praised the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, attributing the transformation of Jammu and Kashmir from a “terrorism capital to a tourism capital” to his development policies.
“Today, we have travelled from that terrorism capital to the tourism capital under the visionary leadership of the prime minister,” he said.
Regarding terrorism and Pakistan’s influence, Tarun Chugh said, “Pakistan is trying to fight the lost battle. These conspiracies will not be allowed to succeed. Those who have weapons in their hands and those who are killing our citizens will not be forgiven.”
He assured the people of Jammu & Kashmir of their safety and the government’s commitment to end terrorism. “Our citizens of Jammu and Kashmir are valuable to us. They will be protected at any cost, he added.
