BJP plotting to bring Hindu chief minister in IOK

Srinagar, October 08, 2019 (PPI-OT): After the abrogation of Article 370 and bifurcation of Jammu and Kashmir into two union territories, the Bharatiya Janata Party is conspiring to pave the way for a Hindu chief minister through gerrymandering in the name of delimitation.

In a media interview, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Kashmir chief, Ravinder Raina, said, “The BJP is hopeful of getting its ‘first Chief Minister’ in Jammu and Kashmir following the abrogation of Article 370, and the planned delimitation of the Assembly constituencies.”

“Jammu and Kashmir is a unit and as President of BJP [IOK], I am confident that we will have a BJP Chief Minister in Jammu and Kashmir very soon,” he boasted. When asked about the planned delimitation of constituencies in IOK, Raina said, “The Election Commission will take a final call on the delimitation of the Assembly constituencies here.”

In a tacit reference to BJP-judiciary collusion when it comes to the strengthening of Indian occupation over Jammu and Kashmir, Raina said the poll panel will constitute a commission, which will be headed by either a retired Supreme Court or High Court judge. The BJP leader pointed out that the commission which will be constituted for the delimitation process will follow all the standard procedures.
