Jammu: BJP on Tuesday demanded resignation of
Congress minister from Jammu region, including Deputy Chief
Minister Tara Chand, to protest "neglect" of the area by the
NC-led coalition government.
"We demand resignation of Jammu-based Congress ministers,
including Deputy Chief Minister Tara Chand, for their total
surrender before the Kashmir-centric coalition government,"
BJP state chief Shamsher Singh Manhas told reporters here.
He said increasing the number of Urban Local Bodies and
wards in Kashmir region compared to Jammu region on the eve of
forthcoming municipal elections in the Valley proved the
discrimination.
Manhas claimed that the Congress has now been totally
exposed as it has adopted "a total silence" over the issue.
