NEW DELHI: BJP National General Secretary, Rajya Sabha MP and J&K BJP Prabhari Tarun Chugh, BJP J&K President and Rajya Sabha MP Sat Sharma (CA), Leader of Opposition in the J&K Assembly Sunil Sharma, and Lok Sabha MP Jugal Kishore Sharma called on Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Union Health Minister JP Nadda in New Delhi to apprise them of the prevailing governance, political and security situation in Jammu & Kashmir.

The BJP delegation conveyed to the Union Home Minister that there is growing public dissatisfaction over the National Conference government's failure to address the everyday concerns of the people. Despite receiving a popular mandate, the NC government has failed to provide responsive and accountable governance, while remaining preoccupied with political blame games and diversionary narratives. The delegation highlighted that key public issues relating to employment, civic amenities, infrastructure development, public welfare and administrative efficiency continue to remain neglected, creating widespread frustration among the people. They urged that the development momentum created under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi should not be allowed to slow down because of the inefficiency and lack of governance displayed by the present dispensation in Jammu & Kashmir.

The delegation also reviewed the prevailing security situation and observed that the firm policies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the decisive leadership of Union Home Minister Amit Shah have significantly weakened the ecosystem of terrorism in Jammu & Kashmir. They emphasized that the improved security environment has opened new avenues for investment, tourism, infrastructure expansion and economic growth across the Union Territory, bringing renewed confidence among the people.

The BJP leaders also acknowledged the smooth, peaceful and successful conduct of the annual Shri Baba Amarnath Ji Yatra. They appreciated the coordinated efforts of the security forces, civil administration and all stakeholders in ensuring the safe completion of the holy pilgrimage, describing it as another example of the vastly improved security and administrative preparedness achieved under the Modi government's leadership.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah assured the delegation that the Government of India, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, remains fully committed to safeguarding the interests of the people of Jammu & Kashmir. He reiterated that the Centre will continue to strengthen the security framework, accelerate development, expand welfare initiatives and ensure good governance reaches every section of society. He also assured the delegation that every genuine concern raised by the BJP leaders would receive due attention and appropriate action.
