BUDGAM: J&K BJP General Secretary (Organization) Ashok Koul, accompanied by BJP General Secretary Mohammad Anwar Khan, chaired a meeting with the District BJP team Budgam at S1 Church Lane to review the party’s performance in the recently held Budgam Assembly bi-elections and to discuss the roadmap for upcoming organizational activities.

Addressing the meeting, Ashok Koul expressed satisfaction over BJP’s notable performance in the Budgam bi-elections, stating that the results clearly indicate the shifting political landscape in Kashmir, where people are vouching for a change and at the same time acknowledging the BJP’s commitment to peace, progress, and development.

Koul said, “The Budgam results reflect that the performance of BJP is promising, and the coming time will surely witness further strengthening of the BJP organization in the entire Kashmir region.”

Ashok Koul emphasized that the BJP is steadily emerging as a credible political force across Kashmir, due to its transparent governance model, welfare schemes, and focus on inclusive development. He urged the district team to continue deepening grassroots engagement and to work with renewed dedication for the party’s expansion.

Mohammad Anwar Khan appreciated the collective efforts of the Budgam unit and stressed for the consistent outreach, booth-level strengthening, and increased acceptance of the BJP’s vision among the youth and civil society. He said that the people of Budgam are responding positively to BJP’s initiatives, and this momentum must be sustained with more proactive campaigns.

BJP leaders from the local unit assured the senior leadership to ensure greater participation of prominent locals, social activists, community elders, and youth leaders in BJP’s programmes and public welfare activities. They stressed that public-centric initiatives and visibility of good governance will remain BJP’s hallmark in Budgam.
