Srinagar/Jammu, Nov 14:
BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh today said that the Omar Abdullah government has lost the moral right to rule J&K after the defeat of the NCP candidates in both the by-elections.
In the Budgam Assembly constituency seat, which was vacated by Omar Abdullah, it’s a huge humiliation for Omar Abdullah since he had won the seat earlier and had promised the voters to be with them. Omar Abdullah’s insincere political narrative is completely exposed much to his humiliation, Chugh said.
Chugh said the Assembly by-election result reflected the dismal failure of the Omar Abdullah government on all fronts. " It is an alarming statement that a seat that Omar Abdullah had promised to nurture and develop was jettisoned by him, which, consequently, made the people lose their entire confidence in the Chief Minister and his governance", Chugh said. The NCP's defeat is a clear signal that the people of Jammu and Kashmir are ready to move beyond the politics of certain families and their divisive agenda, he said.
Hailing the victory of the BJP nominee Deayani Rani in the Nagrota Assembly constituency , Chugh said the people of the state have once again reaffirmed their faith and trust in the development and progressive policies of the Modi government.
Chugh said the by-election results demonstrated clearly that the Omar Abdullah government has disappointed people of the union territory by its inefficient and incapable governance.
Chugh asserted that these results have injected new energy into the party. "The BJP will continue to work tirelessly to ensure a Viksit Bharat (Developed India), where every citizen benefits from progress, and the politics of appeasement and corruption are permanently relegated to the past."
