A grand event was held at BJP’s Headquarters in Jammu, where hundreds of workers and leaders assembled and danced to the dolak beats.They were also raising pro-BJP and pro-Modi slogans, and chanted ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ amid shouts of “Ab ki bar 50 ke paar”.
Speaking on the occasion, Jammu and Kashmir BJP President Ravinder Raina in upbeat mood said that BJP’s victory has vindicated the policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government.
“The pro people policies of BJP have been accepted, he said, adding, “the victory is also befitting reply to Samajwadi Party and Congress, as both parties are struggling for their survival in UP and Punjab”.
Replying to query about polls in Jammu and Kashmir, Raina said, “Union Home Minister Amit Shah has already said that the elections in J&K will be held after the Delimitation Commission completes its assigned task.
“Once all assembly segments in J & K are properly demarcated, the elections would be held,” Raina said and added that whenever Jammu Kashmir would go to polls and BJP will repeat UP like landslide victory.
“It will cross the 50-plus mark in the Assembly elections in the union territory and will register a “landslide victory” to form its government here.”
“It clearly shows the victory of developmental agenda of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. People voted for the BJP for peace, security and development,” Raina told reporters here.
Further Raina said that people of Jammu and Kashmir are standing with Narendra Modi government and are taking care of every section of society.
In Srinagar, former legislator and senior BJP leader Surinder Ambardar led the victory march with the party workers dancing in celebration.
