J&K Politicians Amassed Property By Looting Development Funds

he Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday said people have the right to know about the property “amassed” by mainstream politicians in Jammu and Kashmir.

“We are demanding that the government should undertake an evaluation of the property of all mainstream politicians in J&K including those associated with the BJP,” said the party General Secretary (Organization) Ashok Kaul.

He was addressing a party convention in north Kashmir’s Kupwara district. “In the past, the mainstream parties and politicians amassed property by looting central funds which were allocated for development works,” said Kaul.

“It is important that there should be a thorough probe to bring to fore what happened to the funds that were allocated to J&K for development,” said Kaul.

He said the condition of roads was inferior in Kashmir and people were facing problems due to irregular power supply.
