KULGAM : CPI(M) veteran Mohamad Yousuf Tarigami has secured his fifth consecutive victory in Kulgam constituency, defeating Jamaat-e-Islami candidate Sayar Reshi.
Tarigami has represented the constituency since 1996, winning the 2002, 2008, 2014 and 2024 elections . He received 33,390 votes, while Reshi, an independent candidate supported by the banned politico-religious organization Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI), got 25,639 votes.
People have defeated Jamaat’s polarisation of voters, Tarigami said, adding: “This is how they were exposed… It’s a loss for their demagogic politics, their double-faced and deceptive politics.”
Tarigami was always supported by all parties, barring BJP. In the past, Tarigami was given space by Congress and National Conference . This time NC did not field any candidate in Kulgam.
