Scores of Congress activists assembled at Congress Bhawan in Srinagar and attempted the march towards BJP office. The police didn’t allow the protesters to leave the premises of the Congress Bhawan.

Srinagar Youth Congress president Yasir Mandoo said that under the BJP government the sovereignty of the Prime Minister’s Office has been compromised. “The PM office used to have its own importance before 2014 but after BJP and PM Modi took over, the importance and sovereignty of the PMO has been compromised. Why is Modi surrendering repeatedly in front of Donald Trump? Why is the USA framing our country’s policies? Why is Trump humiliating our country at the international level? Under what pressure did Modi finalise the US- India trade deal? Why is Modi silent on Epstein files?,” Mandoo said.

He said that BJP’s top priority is their own interest. “Before 2014 PMO’s top priority used to be national interest but post 2014, Modi and BJP’s top priority is party interest, personal interest and interest of their friends. The national interest is their last priority,” he said.

He said that BJP has failed the people of the country internationally and diplomatically.
