GOOL: Union Minister Jitendra Singh said on Saturday his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was ready for assembly and parliamentary polls in Jammu and Kashmir.
Talking to reporters on the sidelines of a function here in the hilly Ramban district, he said, “It is not in my control to say when the elections will take place or whether parliamentary and assembly elections in the State will be held together.”
“The Election Commission is an independent constitutional body and will take a decision on the schedule of the elections in the State on its own after a review… The BJP is ready for the elections, even if it is held today,” he said. (AGENCIES)
