| Opposition alliance disintegrates in Ladakh, Rahul addresses Cong rally | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 25: Former Congress president and Lok Sabha member Rahul Gandhi kicked start the campaign for party for the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council (LAHDC) Kargil elections today while addressing a rally at Kargil.
Interestingly, despite making tall claims to counter the BJP unitedly in every nook and corner of the country, opposition parties failed to present a united face in Kargil.
Two constituents of the newly floated Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) are fighting against each other in Kargil.
The National Conference and Congress have fielded their candidates against each other which is a clear indication of the disintegration of I.N.D.I.A in Ladakh.
Addressing a rally at Kargil to windup his weeklong tour of Ladakh, Rahul Gandhi extended Congress’s unconditional support to the demands of the Leh Apex Body and Kargil Democratic Alliance.
“During my week-long tour, I covered every nook and corner of Ladakh on my bike. I understand issues of Ladakh by interacting with the common man”, he said.
“ People told me that their political voice is being muzzled. Ladakh might have become a Union Territory, but natives of this region are being deprived of their rights”, he said and added that people told him that promises of employment made to them were false.
“A few months back, we held Bharat Jodo Yatra from Kanyakumari to Kashmir. Our aim was to take a stand against the hatred being spread by BJP-RSS. We tried to spread love in the country,”, he said.
“Congress party fully supports the demands of the residents of Ladakh”, he said while referring to the issues raised by the Leh Apex Body and Kargil Democratic Alliance.
Rahul Gandhi extended support to the agitating groups of Ladakh to retrieve the land ground of his party in this mountainous region.
In two successive elections in 2014 and 2019, BJP won the Ladakh Lok Sabha seat which was earlier considered as citadel of the Congress party.
After completing a week-long tour in Ladakh, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi reached Srinagar on a two-day “personal visit”.
Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) president Vikar Rasool Wani said that Rahul Gandhi will be joined by his mother Sonia Gandhi on Saturday.
Wani, however, said the two senior leaders will have no political engagement or meeting with any party leaders in Srinagar during the “family tour.” |
