BJP has imposed undeclared emergency in Jammu and Kashmir: JKPCC chief

Srinagar:

Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Vikar Rasool Wani on Monday said the BJP government has imposed an “undeclared emergency” in Jammu and Kashmir by not holding assembly elections in the Union Territory since 2019.

“Congress believes in conducting elections at every level like panchayat, DDC (district development council), BDC (Block Development Council), and especially at the assembly level,” Wani said.

“In November this year, nine years will be completed without elections. If every state gets the right to vote in an election after every five years then why not here. Here BJP has made an undeclared emergency. Definitely in Jammu and Kashmir elections should take place,” Wani told reporters at Khonmoh in the outskirts of Srinagar.(Agencies)
