Terming the BJP’s win in Leh Hill Council polls in Jammu and Kashmir as a “good sign”, Union Minister Prakash Javadekar on Saturday asserted that the party will replicate such victory in Bihar elections too.
“For the first time, the people of Leh, who have remained neglected for years during the Congress-National Conference regime, have voted for BJP. This has also helped removing the perception that Buddhists were against the BJP,” he claimed.
Mr Javadekar said the policies of Narendra Modi government have come in for appreciation right from Leh to Andaman and people want development.
“People have reposed faith in BJP leadership. Though small in population but in large territory, the Leh people (mostly Buddhists) have voted BJP. Bihar politics is for a major shift but people will vote for development and not for caste,” he said.
Dislodging the Congress, the BJP swept the Leh elections, bagging 17 seats in the 26-member Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council. In the elections held in 2010, the Congress had 22 seats while BJP had 4. -- PTI
