BJP ends the alliance with PDP

  • The three-year-long political alliance between PDP and BJP in Jammu and Kashmir ended abruptly on Tuesday.  BJP vice president and general secretary Ram Madhav said, "It has become untenable for the BJP to continue with the alliance government in Jammu and Kashmir." BJP cited the rise in terrorism, violence and radicalization as the reasons behind its decision. J&K chief minister, Mehbooba Mufti has resigned from her post.


जम्मू-कश्मीर में पीडीपी और बीजेपी के बीच तीन साल का राजनीतिक गठबंधन मंगलवार को अचानक ही समाप्त हो गया। बीजेपी के उपाध्यक्ष और महासचिव राम माधव ने कहा, "BJP के लिए जम्मू-कश्मीर में गठबंधन सरकार जारी रखना असमर्थनीय हो गया है।" भाजपा ने अपने फैसले के पीछे कारणों के रूप में आतंकवाद, हिंसा और कट्टरपंथीकरण में वृद्धि का हवाला दिया। जम्मू-कश्मीर के मुख्यमंत्री मेहबूबा मुफ्ती ने अपनी पद से इस्तीफा दे दिया है।
