The strategy of the Election Commission and security agencies was successful
Terrorist attacks were taking place every day before the announcement of assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir. In view of that, holding elections here seemed quite challenging. But the strategy of various security and intelligence agencies of the country including the Election Commission, Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police, BSF and CRPF was successful. In which the Union Home Ministry played an important role. Sources said that such a strategy was made for the elections. In which there was very little possibility of bloodshed during the elections. The result is in front of everyone. All three phases of elections were conducted smoothly without a single bullet being fired and without a single drop of blood being shed.
