| Gadkari episode may delay BJP organizational elections | | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Oct 28: With national president of the Party, Niting Gadkari dogged by charges against his companies, the organizational elections of BJP will be further delayed in the state as well as in the country.

The sources said with the names of some fake share holders in Gadkari’s firm making rounds, the BJP chief may also try to play safe and prefer to c... | |
| | | | S. Delhi Mayor honoured, but no laurels to son of soil who too made party proud….. | | | | Early Times Report
Jammu: State unit of BJP leadership may take pride in having convened a function to felicitate South Delhi Mayor Savita Gupta on Saturday along with J&K ‘Prabhari’ Prof Jagdish Mukhi, perhaps for the first time ever since he was given this charge two years.

This lapse left workers and cadres disappointed with the ... | |

Jammu, Oct 28:
The Secretary General of Jammu Kashmir Council for Human Rights (JKCHR), Dr Syed Nazir Gilani has been questioning the ability of the separatist leadership to negotiate with New Delhi on Kashmir. He also said that the “separatists have no paper or plan with them to negotiate with India.”

There is no denying the fact that the Hurriyat leaders lack the ... | |

MINCING NO WORDS
NEHA
JAMMU, Oct 28: Is All-Party Hurriyat Conference – Mirwaiz (APHC-M) really moderate and secular? It is not. Paradoxically, however, it has become customary with Indian intellectuals, think-tanks and commentators to term the APHC-M as “moderate” and the one which is being headed by Syed Ali Shah Geelani as a pro-Pakistan extremist outfit.
