Samba, September 12: BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh and Uttarakhand chief minister Pushkar Dhami ked a road show followed by a large public rally in Samba in which Chugh, recounted the conspiracies of the Sheikh Abdullah-led government during the Jana Sangh era.
He explained how two constitutions and two symbols were imposed at the time, and how Jana Sangh’s founder, Syama Prasad Mookerjee, was arrested during Sheikh Abdullah’s regime.
In a statement issued to the Kashmir Media Watch, Chugh remarked, “The false narrative established by Sheikh Abdullah continues even today, with his descendants still demanding the reinstatement of Article 370.” He urged the audience to consider this election carefully, asking, “Should we continue supporting the ideals of Premnath Dogra, or fall for the conspiracy led by Sheikh Abdullah, which aims to keep J&K shackled by Articles 370 and 35(A)? Does J&K need to move forward from this?”
He further criticized Farooq Abdullah’s push to reinstate Articles 370 and 35A, questioning the need for the return of two flags and suggesting that it would undermine the constitution introduced by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. He said, “This election is not simply a contest agains the NC, Congress, and PDP. It is a battle between those who wish to bring back 370 and those supporting Narendra Modi’s development agenda for J&K.”
Chugh concluded by urging the people of Samba to vote for the BJP and ensure the victory of their candidate, Surjit Singh Salathia.
