Know your BJP!

                                   The BJP was founded on 2 October, 1951 by a nationalist leader Dr. Shyamaprasad Mukharjee. Earlier the party was known as 'Jansangh'. But they altered the name in April, 1980 to 'Bhartiya Janta Party(BJP)'. Dr. Shyamaprasad was appointed as minister of commerce & industry soon after India got independence. Yes, he was in Congress.
                                  Pandit Nehru granted 'special status' to Kashmir, which has muslim majority. Dr. Mukharjee raised objection against Nehru's decision. By virtue of Special status given to Kashmir, the chief minister became 'Prime minister' of Kashmir and Kashmir has its own separate constitution. Kashmir has its own distinct flag,too.
                                  Now, tell me how Kashmir is an integral part of India? The state has its own parliament, constitution & flag! Then how can you claim that its still a part of India? Dr. Shyamaprasad was reluctant to accept this. He resigned from his post on 19 April, 1950. Next he formed nationalist party-' Jansangh'. The slogan was-" Ek desh main do vidhan, ek desh main do nishan, ek desh main do pradhan nahi chalengey!" (Two constitutions, two flags, two prime ministers in one country are not acceptable.) He went to Kashmir on 11 May, 1953 to ignite a movement against Nehru's decision. But, he was arrested & imprisoned there according to Nehru's order. Nearly one month later, he died in that jail. A massive thank to Dr. Shyamaprasad Mukharjee for forming BJP! Thank you again.
