Omar Abdullah Presses BJP to Prove Development Claims Through Elections

 Handwara, Nov 26(KNS): Former Chief Minister and National Conference Vice-President Omar Abdullah questioned the BJP's commitment to development in J&K, urging them to announce elections and highlighting the contradiction in their claims and attitude as they avoid conducting ULB, Panchayat, and Assembly elections in the Union Territory.

Addressing reporters at a party convention in Handwara, Omar Abdullah remarked that if the BJP government has indeed made progress in the Union Territory, they should confidently announce elections in J&K, providing an opportunity for the party to showcase its developmental achievements. However, he suggested that the reluctance to hold elections suggests a lack of confidence or apprehension on their part.

"The challenges faced by the people seem to dissipate into thin air, as no one seems to care. There is a glaring absence of the mother of democracy here in J&K. Don't the people of J&K deserve the right to choose their elected representatives? Democracy is being undermined in Jammu and Kashmir," Omar said.(KNS).
