JAMMU,06-04-2023 : Contradicting the claim made by BJP leadership over party’s readiness for Assembly polls, Taranjit Singh Tony, Chairman Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Jammu and Kashmir for Administrative Engagement and Minority Affairs, and District Development Council (DDC) Member Suchetgarh said that Saffron brigade is not ready for the polls rather it is running from the polls by deferring the same on one pretext or the other.
In a statement issued here today, the senior AAP leader said that the local leadership of BJP is making fool of people and in this course passing the time because deep in heart all of them know that their party cannot cross the 5-seat mark in the UT as they have failed to come upto the expectations of the people. He said, had they been ready for elections they would not have shied away from the same. He said that even a school going child knows that almost all BJP leaders will lose their electoral bonds in case J&K goes for polls today. “The BJP leadership in J&K is simply passing time till 2024 by giving distracting statements because all of them know that there is no chance of polls before 2024”, he said adding that these statements are only meant for media and people should not pay any heed to these lies of the ‘liar’ party.
“Getting 50 seats in J&K as of today for BJP is simply impossible and therefore every single worker of the party knows that elections any time soon will prove to be suicidal for the party”, he said adding that on one side BJP Government at the centre is boasting that it has brought in normalcy across J&K and on the other, the same government is denying polls citing terrorism. “Earlier, the government has made climate and delimitation exercise an excuse and soon it will come out with another one to keep in abeyance the utmost necessary poll process”, he maintained.
Tony said that BJP is the other name of deception and therefore there is no need to believe on what its leadership is claiming as the leaders of this party are Drama Kings. He said that the Government is holding Panchayat and ULB elections, but the same are no alternative to Assembly elections.
