Development Under BJP Rule

Kashmir has indeed witnessed significant transformation since Article 370 was abrogated. The BJP-led central government has launched several key projects, including the iconic Chenab Rail Bridge and the Sonmarg Tunnel. These initiatives aim to improve connectivity and promote tourism in the region.

Railway networks are expanding across sensitive areas like Srinagar, Baramulla and Kulgam, linking Kashmir more closely to the rest of India. Assembly elections were recently held, marking a milestone in the restoration of democracy in the region.

Contrasting Eras: Congress vs BJP

Kangana Ranaut’s story draws a clear distinction between the governance styles of Congress and BJP. According to her, the Congress era is remembered for its struggles with peace and security in Kashmir, while she believes the BJP's tenure has been marked by efforts to bring development, infrastructure, and unity to the region. Kangana has pointed out that the BJP has focused on connecting Kashmir with the rest of the country, through projects like the rail network and improved roadways, which, in her view, have already begun to change the lives of the people living there.
