Long queues outside polling booths in J&K; 58.19% voting recorded by 5 pm
Except for a brief suspension of polling in Kishtwar due to a quarrel between supporters of two candidates, the process remained largely peaceful.
Union Minister and J&K election in-charge G Krishna Reddy, on Sunday said that the agenda of the BJP is better future of J&K and its development, while the agenda of the National Conference, Congress and PDP is destructive and divisive.
This was stated by Reddy in the presence of BJP Working President, Sat Sharma, MP Jugal Kishore Sharma, BJP National Secretary and BJP candidate from Jammu South, Narinder Singh Raina, chief spokesperson, Sunil Sethi and media in-charge, Dr Pradeep Malhotra.
