NC’s fight in Anantnag is not against BJP since Mehbooba’s party no longer a friend: Omar
Omar was ostensibly referring to Mehbooba Mufti who has filed her nomination for the seat as PDP candidate against NC’s Gujjar spiritual leader Mian Altaf.
Omar was ostensibly referring to Mehbooba Mufti who has filed her nomination for the seat as PDP candidate against NC’s Gujjar spiritual leader Mian Altaf.
Mehbooba was taking part in a roadshow in south Kashmir’s Pahalgam area during her election campaign.
She said the PDP became the “biggest target” after the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019 and its leaders were either “lured or blackmailed” to break away from it
The NC had unilaterally announced that it would field its candidates on all the three seats and fielded Mian Altaf from Anantnag. The NC had left two seats in Jammu for the Congress as part of the INDIA bloc's seat-sharing agreement.
Mehbooba was responding to Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s statement wherein he said that the dynastic parties that did not let J&K develop should be wiped out in the Lok Sabha elections.
Earlier this month, Former Chief Ministers of Jammu and Kashmir, Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti were slapped with the stringent Public Safety Act (PSA)
Kashmiri IAS topper-turned-politician, Shah Faesal was in August last, detained at the Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport when he was about to board a flight to leave the country.
Former Jammu and Kashmir CMs Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti, who were under preventive detention for the past six months, were on February 5 booked under the PSA without charges, barely hours before their arrest was to come to an end.
Envoys from Canada, Austria, Uzbekistan, Uganda, Slovakia, Netherlands, Namibia, Kyrgyzstan, Bulgaria, Germany, Tajikistan, France, Mexico, Denmark, Italy, Afghanistan, New Zealand, Poland, Rwanda and European Union are members of the visiting team.
