Jammu Kashmir Election Voting Update: Voter Turnout Reaches This Percentage By 1 PM—What Does It Mean for the Polls | ABP News

In an interview with ABP News, BJP candidate Sunil Sharma from the Paddar-Nagseni constituency in Kishtwar stated that he had defeated National Conference’s Sajad Ahmed Kichloo in 2014. He expressed confidence that the Bharatiya Janata Party would win all three seats in Kishtwar with a substantial margin. Sharma criticized the pre-Article 370 mindset of local leaders, who he claimed believed that terrorists would secure them votes. With Article 370 abolished, separatism has been eradicated, forcing Kashmiri politicians to seek votes from the people for the first time. Sharma also criticized Rashid Engineer, labeling him as a dubious character known for changing allegiances, and predicted that both political families would be defeated.
