New Delhi: A day after a deadly terror attack on a CRPF convoy in Pulwama, BJP national general secretary Ram Madhav expressed his thoughts about the possibility of holding assembly elections in the state of Jammu & Kashmir.
Reportedly, Madhav ruled out lack of attention on Kashmir saying that the Kashmir policy has always been under active thinking, but what the country needs today is a strong policy against terrorism and Pakistan.
“Only the Election Commission can take a call on whether elections can be held in J&K under these circumstances,” Madhav was quoted in reports.

“The people behind this are sitting in Pakistan. The JeM has taken responsibility and Pakistan is not doing anything. The diplomatic channels will be used to bring nations together on this matter, including China,” Madhav added.
While PM Modi assured strict action against Pakistan, Congress president Rahul Gandhi said that he and his party would support the government and would “not get into any other discussion for the next couple of days”.
“It is easy to blame agencies, a terrorist needs to be lucky just once. I am glad that opposition parties are standing with us in one voice,” Ram Madhav said.
