| BDC polls: After humiliating defeat BJP gives wrong figures to befool people | | |
Early Times Report
Jammu, Oct 26: After shameful defeat of the party in Block Development Council (BDC) elections, incumbent leadership of state BJP is trying to befool the people and workers by presenting wrong pictures. BJP state president, who has failed to even protect his home block of Lambari, has claimed that party and his supporters have won 102 seats but the reality is that party has won only 80 seats out of 280 on which party had fielded its candidates with much pomp and show.
On October 4, BJP state president along with senior leaders had addressed a press conference in which he had announced to field 280 candidates but after declaration of the results, in which party performed very bad, it claimed that party has fielded less candidates and supported lot of independents who has won the elections.
Credible sources in the BJP said that he had made a prestigious issue to win Lambari, Sunderbani and Nowshera blocks of any home constituency at cost.
A senior BJP leader, on the condition of anonymity, said that he had to win these three blocks by luring Panchayats members but at the end of the day he failed.
Out of 10 districts in the Jammu region, the BJP has managed to get respectable seats only in Kishtwar district where the party won seven seats out of 13. An Independent candidate supported by the BJP had also won from Kishtwar.
Despite boycotting the elections, the Congress leaders threw their weight behind the BJP's rebels and many of them won the polls.
All the BJP leaders had lost their home blocks as elected panchayat members were annoyed with their style of functioning during the PDP-BJP tenure, especially in Jammu, Samba, Kathua and Udhampur districts. |
