Expressing grave concern over the increased terror activities in the region, he said that it is the failure of the government to take timely steps and strengthen the security network before the spread of terror activities, and the government must take all necessary steps to control the situation and hold the assembly elections in time. The assembly elections in the past were held in more difficult situations and restoration of democracy is itself a message to terrorism, he added

Vikar said that Congress forcefully demands restoration of statehood before elections to restore full powers to the people. Criticising the recent order snatching all powers from elected government and vesting the same in the Lt Governor is another betrayal of BJP with the people of J&K. He said BJP has done this after realising that non-BJP Government of Congress and other likeminded parties shall come to power after the assembly elections in J&K.
