Folks ought to have a look at INDIA alliance leaders on all 5 seats of Jammu and Kashmir, Omar Abdullah stated.
Anantnag:
Nationwide Convention chief Omar Abdullah claimed that Mehbooba Mufti-led Folks’s Democratic Celebration (PDP) has joined the Bharatiya Janata Celebration (BJP) as its ‘C group’.
Mr Abdullah’s assertion comes after BJP chief Mushtaq Bukhari notably urged members of the Pahari neighborhood to vote for Mehbooba Mufti within the ongoing Lok Sabha election.
Referring to this, the NC chief stated, “If we have now to defeat the BJP right here, and the powers spreading poison in the entire nation, then individuals ought to have a look at INDIA alliance leaders on all 5 seats of J-Ok. All others are linked to the BJP not directly. Be it the ‘A’ or ‘B’ group that meets Tarun Chugh sahib or PDP. I’m assuming that now Mehbooba Mufti will put stress on the BJP to get Mushtaq Bukhari’s assertion modified. PDP has joined BJP as its ‘C’ group.”
When requested about sitting BJP Ladakh MP Jamyang Tsering Namgyal who dropped as a candidate from the constituency on this election, Mr Abdullah stated that they may attempt to discipline such a candidate from the Nationwide Convention-Congress in order that BJP has no probability of profitable the seat.
“The fitting candidate ought to be fielded by Congress (on the Ladakh seat) as we’re combating collectively on the Ladakh seat. We are going to attempt to discipline such a candidate from Nationwide Convention-Congress in order that BJP has no probability of profitable the seat,” he stated.
BJP on Tuesday introduced Tashi Gyalson, a former celebration basic secretary of the Ladakh unit, as its candidate from the Ladakh constituency changing its present MP Jamyang Tsering Namgyal from the Lok Sabha seat.
Tashi Gyalson is a councillor from the Lingshed constituency and in 2020 was elected as chairman and chief government councillor of the sixth Ladakh Autonomous Hill Improvement Council, (LAHDC), Leh.
He joined the BJP after the BJP-PDP coalition authorities within the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir collapsed. He was then a member of the PDP.
Polling in Udhampur was held on April 19 (Section 1), whereas Jammu, Anantnag-Rajouri, Srinagar, and Baramulla will ballot on April 26, Might 7, Might 13, and Might 20 respectively.
In 2019, polling for the Lok Sabha was held for six seats in Jammu and Kashmir. Nonetheless, following the abrogation of Article 370, which resulted within the break up of the erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir state into two Union Territories–Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, there isn’t a longer a separate Lok Sabha constituency for Ladakh.
Within the 2019 elections, the BJP gained three seats whereas the Nationwide Convention gained the remaining three.
The counting of votes shall be held on June 4.
