The BJP 'Tiranga Bikers Rally' was flagged off from Lal Chowk for Drass, where it will end at the Kargil War Memorial on July 26 on Vijay Diwas to commemorate sacrifices made by the Army in fighting Pakistani forces in Kargil.
The rally was organized by the BJP' Yuva Morcha and a large number of Kashmiri youth took part in it.
July 26 is celebrated as Vijay Diwas to commemorate India's victory in the Kargil war and to remember the heroes who laid down their lives in the service of the country.
BYJM President Tarun Chugh told the gathering, "Two families, Abdullahs and Muftis, who ruled for 70 years, had made Srinagar terrorism capital, but the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi has made it tourism and progress capital.
"These two families claimed that Article 370 cannot be abrogated, but the Prime Minister made it possible.
“Now these two families have joined hands and come up with a Gupkar gang. Abdullah and sons and Mufti and sons are only making poisonous statements.
"They have looted J&K and failed to ensure progress as their personal properties continued to rise.
"Today's rally is being organized to remember the sacrifices made during the Kargil war."
BJP Yuva Morcha's national president Tejasvi Surya also addressed the rally.
