‘We won’t be entering into any pre-poll alliance with any political party as we are considering to field
our candidates on all the 87 assembly constituencies in the state,’ BJP MP and party in-charge for Jammu and Kashmir Avinash Rai Khanna said.
He said the party would soon come out with its first list of candidates, as the Election Commission has announced the dates for the elections.
‘Focus would be on the candidates who are capable to win, those who have a clean image and who can deliver. The party’s election committee will hold a meeting today (Monday) to decide the names of the candidates,’ he said.
Exuding confidence that BJP would replicate its recent performance in Haryana and Maharashtra assembly polls in Jammu and Kashmir, Khanna said the party will win more than 44 seats.
‘We will go beyond 44 seats and form the next government in Jammu andKashmir,’ said Khanna, who presided over a function at party office here.
The BJP leader said the party wants to strengthen democracy in the state and its main poll plank would be to provide corruption free governance to the people.
‘Our manifesto is clear, we will provide a corruption-free, fear-free and dynasty-free governance to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. We want the people of the state to give us a chance and if we fail they can throw us out after six years,’ Khanna said.
Khanna said the popularity of prime minister Narendra Modi has increased many fold amongst the people of Kashmir, especially the Muslim population in Kashmir was keen to give BJP a chance in the state.
‘The people in Kashmir, especially Muslim population, have come closer to BJP. The people in the valley have appreciated the efforts of prime minister in providing them relief and rehabilitation after the devastating floods,’ he said.
When asked if prime minister Narendra Modi campaign for the party candidates in the state, Khanna said people in the state want Modi to campaign.
‘The common people of the state want prime minister Modi to come and hold election rallies in the state and we are hopeful that he would oblige them,’ he said.
