Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 6: Amid reports that assembly elections will be held soon in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, some pro-Jammu leaders have taken an initiative to highlight issues related to the Jammu region.
The first time after the abrogation of Article 370 and 35-A, some non-BJP leaders have decided to raise pro-Jammu issues to restrive lost ground.
Although former Lok Sabha member and ex-minister, Choudhary Lal Singh’s Dogra Swabhimaan Sangathan is going to organize a seminar on “Understanding Jammu: Challenges and Way Ahead”, Congress stalwart Raman Bhala, Panthers Party leader Harsh Dev Singh, DDC member from Suchetgarh Taranjit Singh Tony and Engineer Wajid Bashir Khan will address the seminar.
Highly placed sources said that this initiative has been taken to provide an alternative to BJP in Jammu province by highlighting issues of the Jammu region.
The proposed seminar with the title “Mission: To Union Jammu (For Survival, Dignity and Prosperous Future”, will create a new narrative in Jammu province ahead of the assembly elections in the J&K.
On Friday BJP said that assembly elections in the Union Territory of J&K will be held soon after the completion of the delimitation process.
President of the J&K unit of BJP, Ravinder Raina further claimed that first time in history there will be a chief minister of the party.
“BJP is going to form its government in J&K in the coming assembly elections”, Raina said while addressing media persons at Srinagar after attending a religious function at the famous Shankracharya Temple on Friday.
“Delimitation process will be completed very soon followed by assembly elections in J&K”, Raina said, adding, “Let me tell you, the way people of J&K are accepting BJP, there will be BJP chief minister and BJP government in the UT”.
Like other political parties, BJP has already started preparations for assembly elections in J&K. Earlier in September BJP hinted that assembly elections will be held by the beginning of 2022 to install a democratically elected government.
“We are confident that assembly elections will be held by the start of the next year because the Union Government has repeated assured to install a democratic government in J&K,” Raina had stated.
The BJP has already directed its district units to prepare panels of three candidates for each assembly segment in their respective districts.
During his recent visit to Jammu and Kashmir, the Union Home Minister, Amit Shah has reiterated that the assembly elections will be held in the union territory after delimitation and restoration of statehood will follow.
Shah said he has made a promise in Parliament that the statehood of J&K would be restored and it would be done after the assembly elections.
“Elections will happen. Politicians from Kashmir want that the delimitation to be stopped.
Why? Because it hurts their politics. Now, such things will not stop in Kashmir”, he asserted. |
