New Delhi, Jul 7 :  BJP General Secretary Ram Madhav today rejected reports that his party was working to form a government in Jammu and Kashmir with rebel PDP MLAs and said that it was for continuing with Governor's rule in the state in the interest of peace, governance and development.

His comments on Twitter came after former state chief minister and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah tweeted a news report that claimed that a "big chunk of PDP MLAs are in touch with the BJP high command" and the saffron party was looking to form government.

"Contrary to Ram Madhav's assertions, the state unit of the BJP confesses to being party to the efforts to break the PDP . Power at any cost would seem to be the guiding philosophy," Abdullah said, tagging the BJP leader in his tweet.

Madhav, the BJP's pointsman for the state, replied: "Not true. I will certainly check with the state unit and ensure that BJP keeps itself scrupulously out of whatever is happening in other parties in the Valley.

"We are for continuing with the Governor's rule in the interest of peace, governance and development in the state," he said.

The BJP had last month pulled out of the coalition government in Jammu and Kashmir, bringing the state under Governor's rule.PTI

New Delhi, Jun 19 :  The BJP today pulled out of its alliance with the PDP in Jammu and Kashmir, saying it has become impossible to continue in the government in view of the growing radicalism and terrorism in the state.

The decision to withdraw was taken after consulting Prime Minister Narendra Modi and party chief Amit Shah, the party's general secretary Ram Madhav announced at a press conference here.

The BJP's move raises the possibility of governor's rule in the volatile state, the eighth time since it was imposed in 1977. Madhav himself said the party favours governor's rule.

Immediately after his news conference, senior PDP minister and party's chief spokesperson Naeem Akhthar told reporters in Srinagar that Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti would be submitting her resignation to Governor N N Vohra.

The BJP blamed the PDP for failing to improve the security conditions in the Kashmir Valley. Madhav cited last week's killing of senior journalist Shujaat Bukhari in the heart of Srinagar in the highly secured area of Press Enclave by unidentified gunmen. The same day -- two days before Eid -- an Army jawan was abducted while going on Eid leave and killed.

"It has become untenable for the BJP to continue in the alliance government in the state," Madhav said at the hurriedly called press conference after a meeting with state BJP leaders and ministers who were summoned to the national capital with little notice.

"Keeping in mind that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India and in order to control the prevailing situation in the state, we have decided that the reins of power in the state be handed over to the governor," Madhav added.

Terrorism, violence and radicalism have risen and the fundamental rights of citizens, including right to life and free speech, are in danger, the BJP leader said.

In the state elections in 2015, the BJP won 25 seats and the PDP 28 in the 87-member assembly. The two parties came together to form government with an Agenda of Alliance.

BJP leader and Deputy Chief Minister Kavinder Gupta told reporters in Delhi that he and his ministerial colleagues have submitted their resignations to the governor as well as to the chief minister.

The decision to withdraw support came after BJP president Amit Shah met with the party's lawmakers from Jammu and Kashmir in Delhi.

"Centre did everything for the Valley. We've tried to put a full-stop to the ceasefire violations by Pakistan. PDP has not been successful in fulfilling its promises. Our leaders have been facing a lot of difficulties from PDP in developmental works in Jammu and Ladakh," Madhav said.

"We are not questioning the intentions of PDP but they have failed in improving the condition of life in Kashmir," he added.

The Congress, which has 12 seats in the assembly, said there is no question of an alliance with the PDP.

The other major party in the state is the National Conference with 15 seats.

NC leader Omar Abdullah only posted a cryptic remark on Twitter: "And so it has come to pass..." PTI

Agartala, Apr 21: The BJP national general secretary Ram Madhav is scheduled to attend the BJP state committee meet tomorrow here, to finalise the future plan of action.
Party organization secretary Ajoy Jambal, convener of Northeast Democratic Alliance (NDA) Himanta Biswa Sarma, party observer of Tripura Sunil Deodhar and organisation minister of the party of the region Fanindra Nath Sarma will also be present in the meet.
Party state president and chief minister of Tripura Biplab Kumar Deb said that the meeting is crucial to enhance the political activity at the grassroot level, keeping in mind of 2019 general election. This is the first formal meeting of the party with top leaders of BJP after new government formed in Tripura about one and half months ago.
The meeting will also decide the leadership issues, as it has become tough for Deb to look after party activities in more comprehensive manner now. The party activities slowed down, and a vacuum was created at the organisation level. Internal feud among the leadership has also been reported.
According to the schedule, BJP leaders will attend the state committee meeting at Sahid Bhagwat Singh youth Hostel on April 22 and in the afternoon they will assemble with the state office bearers and hold discussions on their suggestions. UNI
