We had insisted that it should be done before the assembly elections, but the government said they will do it after the assembly elections,&#8221; Azad said at a rally in Aishmuqam area of <a href=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/anantnag-police-arrest-three-with-contraband-substances\/\">Anantnag<\/a> district, 75 kms from here.<\/p>\n<p>The former chief minister said that statehood should be restored immediately after the polls as the government has not specified the time frame for it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After the elections can be a long time later. But it should be done immediately,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>On <a href=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/pm-modi-unveils-projects-worth-rs-15000-crore-in-west-bengal\/\">Prime Minister Narendra Modi<\/a>&#8216;s visit to Kashmir later this week, Azad said that it was an overdue visit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The prime minister visits various parts of the country. His visit to Kashmir was overdue, he visited Jammu last week (month). I will request the PM to carry out the works which the local government cannot do. I would request that two thermal power projects &#8212; one each in Kashmir and Jammu regions &#8212; with a total generation capacity of 4,000 MW be set up to ensure there is no energy deficit in Jammu and Kashmir,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Azad said that electricity was the basic requirement for Modi&#8217;s favourite programme for startups.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That is the only way to address unemployment in Jammu and Kashmir,&#8221; Azad said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jammu and Kashmir has been ruled by the BJP for the last 10 years &#8212; for four years in coalition and then directly. In the past two years, I have visited vast areas of Jammu and Kashmir and found that one problem is common and that is electricity,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12209\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12209\" style=\"width: 260px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12209\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-04-at-6.21.29-PM-260x300.png\" alt=\"Statehood should be restored to J&amp;K immediately: Ghulam Nabi Azad\" width=\"260\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12209\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Statehood should be restored to J&amp;K immediately: Ghulam Nabi Azad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SRINAGAR: DPAP chairman Ghulam Nabi Azad on Monday said that statehood should be restored to Jammu and Kashmir immediately after the assembly elections are held in the Union territory. &#8220;The prime minister and the home minister have promised in the Parliament to restore the statehood to Jammu and Kashmir.
