AAP gives ‘walkover’ to other parties in LS polls in UP
AAP proved its growing hold in UP by winning 100 seats in the municipal elections but could not carry forward the trust that the public expressed in the party in the state.
Suspected militants killed a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) youth leader in Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday, police said.
The throat-slit body of Gowhar Ahmad Bhat was found in a south Kashmir village, a police statement said.
Earlier on Thursday, a constable of 173 battalion of Border Security Force (BSF) belonging to West Bengal was killed due to unprovoked cross-border firing by Pakistan Rangers in the Samba Sector of Jammu division.

The BSF constable identified as Tapan Mondal received serious injuries and later succumbed while being shifted to the Military Hospital in Jammu.
The 25-year-old Tapan belonged to Satui village of Murshidabad district in West Bengal.
He is survived by his mother Sumitra Mondal.
A spokesperson of BSF said that Tapan was injured when Pakistan Rangers opened unprovoked fire at a BSF patrol at 9.30 am in the Mangu Chak border post in the Samba Sector.
