Terrorism, national security, soldier welfare, Article 370 related to Jammu Kashmir, combating infiltration are some of the key issues highlighted in the BJP manifesto released on Monday.
Terming it a vision document for “New India”, the manifesto promised to create growth opportunities for the people of India as the BJP sought continuity for the sake of stability.
The party has also reiterated its demand for abrogation of Article 370 and annulling of Article 35A in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The manifesto also reiterated BJP's stance on construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya. (ANI)
