PDP turns down NC's support to form govt in J&K
PDP chief spokesman Naeem Akhtar said on Wednesday that the NC was making desperate attempts to negate the election results and convert their defeat into victory. He alleged: “Abdullah’s NC is trying to return to power through the back door.”
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won 25 seats in the valley, three less than the PDP’s 28. The NC bagged 15 seats while the Congress clinched only 12.
Abdullah on Tuesday had formally handed to the Governor a letter of support to the PDP which won the most seats in state elections held last month.
The state delivered a fractured verdict on December 23. As a result: Governor’s Rule was imposed last week after Adbullah’s request that he be relieved of the charge of caretaker chief minister in the state.
