Srinagar, Aug 08 (NVI): BJP leader Avatar Singh on Thursday said that the party’s primary demand for the Election Commission of India (ECI) is to conduct elections in Jammu and Kashmir before September 30.
Singh’s remarks followed a meeting with an ECI team in Srinagar, which was evaluating the situation for holding the long-delayed assembly elections in the region.
During the meeting, Singh highlighted the importance of timely elections for restoring democratic governance and ensuring political stability in Jammu and Kashmir.
He said that BJP is already working for the welfare of the people and that is their aim and they are ready for elections as or when they will be held.
