DDC polls not for winning or losing, but to rejuvenate democratic values in J&K: Naqvi | | | Early Times Report SRINAGAR, Nov 23: Asserting that J&K is moving ahead with positivity and people trying to create negative atmosphere should be isolated, Union Minister for Minority Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said that District Development Council (DDC) polls are being held to rejuvenate democratic values in the UT. "It really doesn't matter who wins or loses in the polls, what matters is how enthusiastically the people participate in this democratic process," Naqvi told UNI in an exclusive interview. The Union Minister said that the Peoples Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) took a U-turn and decided to take part in the DDC elections after they felt they are being isolated as the people are moving ahead with development. First of all it doesn't matter who will win how many seats in the District Development Council elections. It is not important how many seats will the BJP or the PAGD win in this election? The important thing is to see how the people of J&K are participating in this democratic process," he said. "I believe whosoever the people of Kashmir and Jammu decides will be elected. This election is not for winning and losing, but for rejuvenating the democratic values," he added. However, he expressed confidence that BJP will do well in the DDC elections as the people of Jammu and Kashmir have full faith in the party. Naqvi further alleged that the dynastic arrogance has been shattered following abrogation of Article 370 and the development after that.
