jammu, Apr 5: Jagat Prakash Nadda, national president BJP has reportedly taken top leadership of J&K unit to task for their failure to reach out to the needy people at the time of crises.
While scolding top leadership for indulging in cheap publicity at this crucial time, Nadda has reported direct local leadership to shun their habit to publicity and dedicated them to provide help to the people who are in the need.
