Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday sounded the election bugle for the BJP in Jammu and Kashmir. Addressing a rally in Jammu, Amit Shah assured statehood for Jammu and Kashmir after the assembly elections. Attacking the National Conference-Congress alliance, Shah alleged that they were trying to throw Jammu and Kashmir into the fire of terrorism again even though the government had brought down terrorist incidents in the Union Territory by 70 per cent. “Be assured that the National Conference and the Congress will never be able to form a government in Jammu and Kashmir,” Shah told party workers.
Home Minister Shah has also said that these are the first elections to be held under the flag and constitution of India and that is why this is a historic occasion. During this, he has also accused the Congress and the National Conference of trying to implement the old system. Shah is in Jammu on a two-day visit to launch the BJP’s election campaign for the three-phase assembly elections starting from September 18.
Congress wants to snatch away the reservation of hill Dalits- Shah
