Early Times Report
Jammu, July 29: After conducting grassroots surveys to get feedback about the performance of sitting members of different Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) the BJP is likely to replace over 45 percent of sitting corporators and councilors to improve its performance of 2018.
Highly placed sources said before the beginning of the process to conduct ULB elections, BJP through various offshoots has conducted the first round of the survey to review the performance of sitting corporators and councilors of different ULBs.
“Party leadership has taken discouraging feedback about the performance of over 45 percent of its elected members”, a source said, adding, “Those who failed to perform upto the mark are likely to be replaced with fresh and energetic faces in different ULBs”
Sources said the coming ULB elections will be the first electoral test for the party in Jammu and Kashmir after the abrogation of Article 370 so BJP is not going to take any chance this time.
The BJP had swept the Jammu Municipal Corporation (JMC) elections and made some advances in Kashmir, by winning 100 wards in the Valley.
In the prestigious Jammu Municipal Corporation (JMC) elections BJP won 43 out of the 75 wards. The urban local bodies elections were held in four phases from October 8-16 in 2018 after a gap of 13 years.
In rest of the 446 wards spread across Jammu region covering a total of 36 municipal committees and councils, the BJP had an edge over its rivals in 15 bodies followed by Independents in 12 and the Congress in five. |
