What’s the electoral mood in Jammu? Journalists on revival of ‘nationalism’ in politics

Newslaundry Interviews

The politics of Jammu have been distinct from that of Kashmir. To grasp the nuances of this difference and the issues in Jammu, Manisha Pande and Atul Chaurasia spoke to the region’s senior journalists – Mohit Kandhari of The Pioneer and Nishikant Khajuria of Daily Excelsio.    

In this episode of Another Election Show, the conversations shed light on the influence of the various political parties in Jammu and the people’s views on the abrogation of Article 370 and statehood. 

On Article 370, Kandhari said, “People have voted in large numbers in the valley, which shows that democracy is taking its place here.” The journalists also delved into the BJP’s election strategy and the other parties’ initiatives to win electoral support.
