Nishikant Dubey’s VIP-guarded family function in Gulmarg faces questions after Pahalgam attack
New Delhi: A private family function hosted by BJP MP Nishikant Dubey in Gulmarg has raised concerns after a recent terror attack in Pahalgam. The function, held around 10 days ago to celebrate Dubey’s 25th wedding anniversary, was attended by politicians from different parties and was heavily guarded.
However, the timing and scale of the event are now being discussed within BJP circles, especially since it took place in a sensitive area like Jammu and Kashmir.
The terror attack in Pahalgam has shaken the region and led to renewed questions about how VIP events are handled in high-risk zones.
Although no direct connection has been established between the Gulmarg event and the attack, the stark contrast between the extravagant gathering and the tragic security lapse has heightened concerns within the BJP regarding the safety of VIP movements and high-profile events in the valley.
Meanwhile, following the attack, the BJP has decided to pause its internal elections. These elections were supposed to choose new state-level presidents in key states like Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, and Madhya Pradesh, and later, a new national president. But with the current tense atmosphere, party sources say these plans have been pushed back, and no new leadership announcements will be made for now.
