Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Jammu and Kashmir twice this month to campaign for BJP candidates ahead of the assembly elections. His first visit is set for September 14, with a second visit planned for September 19.
The assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir are set for September 18, September 25, and October 1, with results expected on October 8. These elections will be the first since the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019, which led to the reorganization of the former state into two Union Territories.
In the 2014 assembly elections, the BJP won all 25 seats in the Jammu region, which has traditionally been a stronghold for the party. This time, the BJP is focusing its efforts on maintaining its dominance amid a challenge from a resurgent Congress, which has formed an alliance with the National Conference.
