The Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) has sought explanation from the Bharatiya Janata Party over presence of alleged militants in party’s ranks and files.
The JKPCC raised this question in response to the media reports that police arrested an alleged militant commander in Jammu on Sunday; however, the media identified him as social media in-charge of the Bharatiya Janata Party Kashmir chapter.
He “had been appointed in May this year as one of the two in-charges of the J-K Bharatiya Janata Party’s social media wing for minorities,” reported The Wire, India based web portal.
The order for his appointment to the key post in the Hindutva party was issued by Sheikh Bashir, the J-K president of the BJP’s Minority Morcha on 9 May.—KMS
