The march was led by BJP district president Rigzin Samphel\u00a0 Heyerpa and included state convenors Purushottam Guleria and Chaman Kapoor, trade cell convenor Govind Thakur, district general secretary Sanjay Katoch, and other party workers.<\/p>\n<p>Carrying BJP flags, the participants marched silently to Ras Bihari Chowk, where they observed a two-minute silence and prayed for the eternal peace of the departed soul. Slogans of \u201cBharat Mata Ki Jai\u201d and \u201cVande Mataram\u201d were also raised.<\/p>\n<p>BJP leaders described Anil Kumar\u2019s death as an irreparable loss to the region and society. They said the party considered it appropriate to suspend the protest and honour the soldier.<\/p>\n<p>The leaders added that the BJP\u2019s struggle against state government policies would continue. They also said workers would strengthen the organisation at the booth level ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BJP Protest in Lahaul-Spiti Postponed, Silent March Held to Honour Army Jawan. &nbsp;
