Post-Article 370 J&K has started smiling, Gupkar gang still crying : Chugh

Chandigarh: BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh, who is also the party in charge of the union territories of J&K and Ladakh, today said that one of the most significant achievements in the post-Article 370 times has been that the divisive and terrorist forces have been dealt a big blow following which an atmosphere of development and progress has built in the region giving people new hope.


Addressing the party workers in Srinagar on the second anniversary of the abrogation of Article 370 Chugh said after many decades the Pakistan-sponsored militancy seems to be on backfoot and people are heaving a sigh of relief as they are no more dancing to the tune of the ISI agents. The anti-national feelings among people have been replaced by inclusive ideas of development and progress.


The basic facilities of health and education have improved considerably even as people from Gujjar or other classes have found equal opportunities to grow, something that they were deprived of for the last 70 years.


Chugh said democratic norms have been restored in J&K after the election to the panchayat bodies. Elections to the block development councils and district development councils have empowered people and has strengthened democracy at the grassroots level.


Chugh came down heavily on the Gupkar gang parties for still trying to disrupt the positive narrative in J&K. He said the Gupkar parties were under strong apprehension that they would soon become redundant in J&K politics because people would slowly give them up and their divisive agenda.
