Abdullah has alleged that the BJP was murdering democracy by detaining victorious People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) candidates and pressurizing candidates of the District Development Council (DDC) to switch sides.
BJP Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament and National Spokesperson Syed Zafar Islam while speaking to news agency ANI said that ‘We went to Kashmir with the intention of winning hearts of people of Jammu and Kashmir, and we are very happy that we succeeded in it. Our main aim was free and fair election in Jammu and Kashmir where people should exercise their democratic right and it happened this time.”
“During this election, we won hearts of people of Jammu and Kashmir and BJP became the single largest party, we got the highest number of votes in the Union Territory and that is the clear indication that we succeeded in winning hearts of people. And whenever next time election in UT takes place we will be victorious,” Islam said.
“Allegations by Adbullah are baseless. We succeeded in making place in the heart of people of Jammu and Kashmir,” the BJP MP added.
In the recently concluded DDC polls, Farooq Abdullah-led seven-party coalition, which comprises National Conference and Mehbooba Mufti’s People’s Democratic Party won 110 seats while BJP won 75 seats and secured the largest vote share in the polls and become the single largest party. 50 independents have also won election apart from other small parties.
After the election results were announced a lot of allegations and counter-allegations being made by parties who participated in the DDC election.
Omar Abdullah accused the Jammu and Kashmir administration of attempting to change the DDC election results forcing the winning candidates to join parties other than the (PAGD). The BJP has called his allegation baseless and said in the next election whenever it takes place the BJP will be victorious.

Chugh said the party is getting more popular in the Union Territory and stated that BJP will reach each and every corner of the J&K for development.
“People accepted the vision and mission of Prime Minister Narendra Modi leadership and voted for peace and prosperity,” he said.
Chugh said that despite pressures and propaganda by “Gupkar Gang” leaders party emerged with victory and maximum vote share.
“We conducted historical rallies in every part of the valley even at separatist hotbeds while traditional leaders had neglected them and left people for God’s mercy,” he said.
Chugh said party workers should fulfill all the promises made during their campaign and not deceive the people like the Gupkar Gang leaders who exploited the people for the past 70.
On the occasion, BJP General Secretary and in-charge Kashmir affairs Vibodh Gupta said that victory of BJP in the DDC elections is the victory of the development.
“BJP popularity has become a frustration for the Gupkar Gang leaders and they are trying to defame our party but people have rejected their dynastic rule,” he said.
Gupta said there is a long way to go. We have already started working on strengthening the party organization based on the DDC election result in the valley.
“DDC and Panchayats will empower people of Jammu and Kashmir and people who were misleading them on the restoration of Article 370 and 35 A are living in the fool’s paradise,” he said.
Chugh added that now common people are empowered by Narendra Modi Government who were suppressed during the past 70 years in the region.
