‘Darkest period in J&K’s history’: BJP leader accuses Omar govt of failure to keep poll promises

BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh on Sunday criticised the National Conference (NC) government for what he called appalling failure to keep the electoral promises.

Addressing a public gathering while campaigning for the BJP candidate Divayani Rana for the by-election of Nagrota assembly seat, Chugh said the Omar Abdullah government’s performance would be the darkest chapter in the history of J&K during which the Abdullah family could deliver nothing for the people.

Chugh called upon party workers to work diligently for the success of Divayani Rana while paying a rich tribute to her father Devendra Rana, who was the sitting MLA and whose untimely demise necessitated the by-election.

Launching a scathing attack on the government, Chugh said on the ground the Omar Abdullah government was a complete disappointment for the people of the Union Territory.

Under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, many milestones have been touched in J&K which is testified by the increasing popularity of the BJP and now it is time for people in J&K to turn the tables on the NC government and deliver a decisive mandate in favour of the BJP, Chugh added.
