In a fresh blow to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Jammu and Kashmir, two senior leaders have resigned, citing dissatisfaction over the ticket distribution process for the upcoming polls. This development comes as the party grapples with increasing internal dissent, which threatens to undermine its electoral prospects in the region.
The resignations follow a wave of discontent among party members, many of whom feel sidelined or overlooked in the ticket allocation process. Sources within the party suggest that these resignations are just the tip of the iceberg, with several other leaders reportedly unhappy with the central leadership’s decisions.
The BJP, which has been working to strengthen its foothold in Jammu and Kashmir, now faces the challenging task of addressing the grievances of its disgruntled members while keeping the election campaign on track. The party’s leadership has yet to issue an official statement on the resignations, but insiders indicate that efforts are underway to placate the dissatisfied leaders and prevent further defections.
The growing dissent within the BJP could potentially affect the party’s performance in the upcoming elections, especially in a region where political dynamics are already complex and sensitive. With the election dates drawing closer, the BJP will need to act swiftly to resolve these internal conflicts and present a united front to voters.
