Hold polls in J-K if confident about your decisions: Cong leader to BJP

AICC general secretary Ambika Soni here on Wednesday attacked the BJP, saying it should hold elections in the newly carved union territory if it felt the decision taken by it were democratic and the situation normal.

Soni was here to consult the state party leadership on the nationwide agitation against the "economic crisis" and said the demand for the restoration of the statehood would be the bottom line for the protests in the Jammu region.

In a reference to the abrogation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, she asked, "How many promises have been fulfilled after the decisions was taken three months ago."
Asked whether she supported elections before the restoration of the statehood, the Congress leader said, "My willingness does not matter."
A congress leader said protests would be held on November 11 at the district level and November 16 in Jammu. "
