Union Minister Jitendra Singh announced a significant political shift in Jammu and Kashmir, with the BJP achieving its highest-ever vote share in recent assembly elections. Once considered a 'taboo', the BJP's ascension marks a monumental change.
During a media conclave, Singh praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, crediting the success to a decade of transformative governance that delivered benefits across all sections of society, irrespective of caste, creed, or religion. This approach, Singh noted, stands in contrast to Congress's old vote-bank politics.
Reflecting on the past, Singh recounted times of political suppression and electoral malpractice in J&K. He highlighted the region's progress towards democratic mainstreaming, culminating in vibrant and enthusiastic elections akin to other parts of India.
