| In final phase BJP launches mega campaign to corner Congress | | |
Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 26: As only three days left before the end of campaigning for the last and final phase of elections, BJP has launched a mega campaign push to corner the Congress in Jammu province where polling will be held for 24 Assembly segments.
While Union Minister Amit Shah conducted a whirlwind from Bani to Marh covering different constituencies of Udhampur district, firebrand leader and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and BJP’s star campaigner Yogi Aditya Nath addressed meetings in Jammu and Samba districts.
Apart from these star campaigners and crowd-pullers, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Jammu on Saturday to speak at a large public rally at Maulana Azad Stadium. BJP leaders see the PM’s visit as a key moment in their final effort to win the Assembly elections.
This rally is part of the BJP’s strong campaign and comes just days before the last phase of voting on October 1.
Preparations for the mega event are in full swing, with local BJP leaders and workers mobilizing support across the district.
The Maulana Azad Stadium, the chosen venue for Modi's address, will be sealed off, and no entry will be allowed until the rally begins.
During his speeches in Udhampur, Bani, and Marh, Home Minister Amit Shah minced no words in attacking Congress for supporting the separatist agenda of the National Conference.
As the battlefield is now shifted to the Jammu region where elections will be held for 24 seats, BJP’s star campaigners are aggressively raising the issue of discrimination in the Jammu region by the successive National Conference and Congress regime.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah took a jab at Omar Abdullah, leader of the National Conference, questioning his aspirations to become Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir.
Shah claimed that both the Congress and the National Conference have lost significant ground in the first two phases of the ongoing Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections, effectively being "wiped out".
Shah pointed out Abdullah's apparent U-turn on his previous promise to refrain from contesting elections until Jammu and Kashmir regained statehood. Abdullah had initially stated he wouldn't contest elections until the state's status was restored, but is now running for two seats ¹. This shift has raised eyebrows, and Shah isn't hesitating to call him out on it.
With two phases of elections already completed, Shah expressed confidence that the BJP's opponents are losing momentum. Specifically, he targeted the National Conference and Congress, implying they're struggling to maintain relevance. This development is significant, considering Abdullah's family legacy in Jammu and Kashmir politics. His grandfather, Sheikh Abdullah, was a key figure in the state's history, and his father, Farooq Abdullah, also served as Chief Minister. |
