From terror to tourist hotspot: Amit Shah says J&K entering new era of peace

Departs for Jammu to unveil party manifesto

 

Srinagar: Union Home Minister Amit Shah is set to kick off the BJP’s election campaign and unveil the party’s manifesto during a two-day visit to Jammu and Kashmir starting Friday.

Shah’s visit comes at a pivotal moment for the BJP in J&K, as the party confronts increasing challenges ahead of the assembly elections. This includes protests from leaders and workers, as well as defections following the denial of tickets.

Shah will release the party manifesto at 4 pm on Friday and will then chair a meeting with party leaders and meet with delegations of party workers.

On Saturday, Shah will officially launch the BJP’s campaign with a rally in Jammu, where he is scheduled to address the crowd.

“J&K is witnessing a new era of peace and development under the Modi government. The region has transformed from a terrorist hotspot into a tourist hotspot, with an increase in educational and economic activities,” the home minister said in a post on ‘X’

“Leaving for Jammu on my two day visit, where I will launch the BJP’s Sankalp Patra today and interact with our karyakartas tomorrow in the Karyakarta Sammelan,” he said.
