The State General Secretary Ram Madhav, one of the BJP’s high-profile face, in a special interview to IANS on Friday, Madhav spoke openly on issues ranging from Jammu & Kashmir to the China border issue and Nepal.
Madhav, on the question of restoring full statehood to Jammu Kashmir, said that his party supports it.
He said, BJPs Jammu Kashmir unit is of the opinion that statehood should be given back when the time is favourable. “We want JK to be restored to a full state”s status. Home Minister Amit Shah himself said while granting UT status that work would be done to get full statehood back very soon. The Assembly is yet to be constituted and delimitation for UT is pending.”
He admitted that there was opposition from people after the removal of special status on August 05 last year, adding that, people have realised that due to Article 370, the personal prosperity of the Kashmiri leaders only increased, but the public did not benefit, Now the public”s attitude is looking positive.
He said that Geelani”s resignation will not be able to cover up his political misdeeds of the last 30 years as thousands of youths died in the valley for which Geelani is responsible.
