SRINAGAR, Feb 3: President of the Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party Altaf Bukhari stated on Saturday that for them, overthrowing dynastic parties like the Peoples Democratic Party and the National Conference is equivalent to waging a jihad. Eight months after Articles 370 and 35A were repealed, Bukhari, who established the Apni Party, expressed optimism that the people will overthrow political parties like the NC and PDP in the next elections. “I hope that in the next elections, the people would remove the PDP and NC from office. In Srinagar, he told reporters, “For us to uproot the two parties is no less a Jihad.” According to the president of the Apni Party, these two parties have put J&K residents in danger.“The leaders of these two political parties, not children, delivered the slogans of ‘autonomy’ and’self-rule.'” The predicament that people are in right now is the result of these two parties, he declared. People would vote against the NC and PDP in the next elections, according to Bukhari, because of what they have done over the previous 70 years. In order to give J&K’s young a dignified living, he made a plea to the public to support the Apni Party. Bukhari, a former PDP member, served as a minister in the PDP-BJP government.According to the president of the Apni Party, Jammu and Kashmir’s population of over 20 crore Muslims may live in harmony within the Union of India. He pleaded with Amit Shah, the home minister, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi to grant the people of Jammu and Kashmir all legal rights.
