"Why don’t they allocate more funds to provide electricity to the people of Jammu and Kashmir?" he said.
Omar, who was talking to media persons in Srinagar after the NC-Congress alliance swept Kargil LAHDC polls, said that neither the Union Government nor the BJP is ready to hold elections in J&K.
Omar Abdullah on Thursday said that Canada should share the evidence to prove its allegations against India made by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar.
“To do this, you will have to change the Constitution of the country. If you have the guts, do it, we will also see who supports your move,” said the National Conference leader.
“How many names will you change? Will you change the names of ISRO that sent rockets to the moon and space, the State Bank of India, IIT, and IIM,” the NC leader asked.
