The Dooru area of the Anantnag district would be his next destination. He'll be speaking in Dooru at a demonstration in favor of Ghulam Ahmad Mir, a former minister and party general secretary. Later that night, Rahul Gandhi would arrive back in Delhi.

 

Launching the BJP's electoral campaign is PM Modi

 

Three rallies around the state are expected to hear from Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Two of these will be in Kashmir and one in Jammu. There is going to be a rally at Doda in Jammu.

According to BJP insiders active in the elections, the party hopes to secure at least 35 seats in Jammu, The Indian Express has learned. Jammu has forty-three assembly constituencies following delimitation. It is also anticipated to win a large number of seats in Kashmir. In the Union Territory, the party aims to become a "key player in government formation".There are 90 people in the new assembly.

 

"Neither NC nor PDP will be able to form a government on their own in Jammu and Kashmir," a leader of the party stated. The BJP will grow to be a significant force indeed, it will form the government. We'll have enough people."
