JAMMU: BJP national general secretary Ram Madhav will visit here tomorrow to review the party ministers functioning in Jammu and Kashmir.
Mr Madhav will be in Jammu today and will go to Srinagar tomorrow to meet Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti.
”The BJP general secretary is visiting Jammu and Kashmir to review the performance of party ministers in the state government,” reliable sources said here.
They said that the visit is in connection with allegations leveled against BJP ministers of poor performance during Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh’s visit to Jammu when he was on four-day tour to the state.
A delegation of Chamber of Commerce and Industries had lodged a complaint with the Union Home Minister against the BJP ministers following which the traders also called a strike on September 18 against what it called “non-performance” of BJP ministers and “sheer discrimination” against the region.
”Mr Madhav will hold discussions and review functioning of the BJP ministers in the state during his visit to Jammu,” party sources said.
They said that some of the MLAs and party workers have also expressed resentment with the high command over working of the ministers. ”Ministers ignoring own party MLAs constituencies, not interacting with masses and failed to meet expectations of Jammu people, were among some of the concerns expressed before the high command by the activists,” BJP insiders said.
They said that the resentment prompted the BJP high command to depute Ram Madhav to look into the complaints. (AGENCIES)
