He said that BJP has befooling the people of J&K on the name of various issues including delimitation, abrogation of Article 370, etc. He said BJP has made wrong commitments with people for carrying out a delimitation exercise for Jammu region in the State Assembly. He asked BJP to fulfill its commitment by holding delimitation of Assembly constituencies before holding Assembly elections.

The constitution is being trampled upon in Karnataka,” he alleged.
“We depreciate the efforts of BJP to buy over legislators, to pressurise legislators into resigning in order to bring down an elected Government in Karnataka. Is this the culture of our democracy?” he asked.
PYC chief emphasized that Congress will not allow BJP such type of horse trading and always stand to save the democracy of our country .
Youth Congress leaders asked BJP leadership to clear its stand on all these important issues, which have great impact on the future of the State and the country.
