He attended a review meeting at the BJP state office in Jammu as part of the ongoing ‘Sangathan Parv’. The meeting, which was chaired by state chief Sat Sharma, focused on evaluating the progress of the membership drive and devising strategies to expand its reach to rural and remote areas.

Addressing party workers, Chugh highlighted BJP’s stature as the world’s largest democratic party, boasting over 11.5 crore members nationwide and 2.57 lakh members in Jammu & Kashmir alone.

A statement said Chugh lauded India’s transformation under PM Modi, stating, “India is now the world’s fifth-largest economy, transitioning from one of the most fragile to one of the strongest. Every citizen, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, is reaping the benefits of the government’s inclusive welfare schemes, which reflect the vision of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas.”

He reiterated the government’s “firm stance on terrorism, asserting that “Pakistan-sponsored terrorism will be eradicated entirely under our ‘zero tolerance on terrorism’ policy.”

Referring to recent remarks by People's Democratic Party Chief Mehbooba Mufti, Chugh dismissed them as baseless and reflective of her ideological bankruptcy.”

“Her comments are detached from reality. No government scheme discriminates against any religion, group, or caste. The nation is witnessing inclusive development that uplifts every section of society,” she said. Mufti had alleged that the nation’s secular foundation was being undermined to which Chugh responded,” the statement said.

Chugh further criticised Mufti for “resorting to divisive rhetoric out of frustration due to repeated electoral failures.”

“The people have rejected her party time and again, Instead of introspection, she spreads venomous propaganda that has no basis in fact,” he said.

Chugh reaffirmed the “BJP’s commitment to building a united and prosperous India, emphasizing that the party’s unparalleled growth and the nation’s progress under PM Modi reflect a shared vision of democracy, development, and inclusivity.”
