‘BJP regime sabotaged Congress party’s campaign in Kathua’
Jammu: The Congress has said that the Bharatiya Janata Party’s regime has sabotaged the party’s campaign through its failure in helping Priyanka Gandhi Vadra’s chopper to land in Billawar, Kathua district of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir where she was scheduled to address an election rally.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Priyanka Gandhi was scheduled to address public rallies in Billawar and Bishnah constituencies of Jammu region.
Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi, who was also scheduled to address rallies in Chhamb and Ramgarh constituencies of Jammu region, failed to make it to the rally spots after his chopper developed snag on Friday.
“We question the administration over its failure to facilitate Priyanka Gandhi’s chopper to address an election rally in Billawar in support of party candidate Dr Manohar Lal,” Chief Spokesperson of the Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir chapter of Indian National Congress Ravinder Sharma told reporters.
“Priyanka Gandhi’s Billawar rally was shamelessly sabotaged by the administration,” he said.
Sharma said that the landing spot for her chopper was set up more than 35 kilometers away from the rally spot in an isolated spot.
He demanded an enquiry into the incident and urged the Election Commission too to look into the matter.
