There is a sea change in Kashmir Valley now as people are fed up with terrorism and violence and they want peace and progress. This is the reason that people are openly coming under BJP fold as they are confident that only this party can give a clean and people’s friendly Government after they were betrayed by other political parties for decades together, he added.
He said during their tour of Kashmir Valley people in large numbers in Shopian, Pulwama , Tral, Anantnag and other parts joined BJP as they have realized that it is the only party which believes in the principle of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas and Sabka Vishwas.
