Lok Sabha Polls In Jammu And Kashmir To Be Held In 5 Phases

There are five Lok Sabha constituencies in Jammu and Kashmir and voting is going on in five phases. The first phase voting was held in Udhampur on 19th April, the second phase in Jammu on 26th April, the third phase in Anantnag will be on 7th May, the fourth phase in Srinagar on 13th May and the fifth phase in Baramulla constituencies will be on 20th May.

Editorial Perspective

Since these attacks are being carried out by Pakistan, the source of Jihadi terrorism, Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) should be first reclaimed and then Pakistan should be completely eliminated.
