Srinagar, March 22
National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah today called for a “united front to foil the machinations of communal and divisive elements”.
Abdullah, who is contesting the upcoming parliamentary byelection for the Srinagar constituency, said the “spirit of inclusiveness alone” could steer the state out of the “prevailing morass and political instability”.
Abdullah’s NC has agreed upon a pre-poll alliance with the Congress, which has fielded its state president Ghulam Ahmad Mir for south Kashmir’s Anantnag parliamentary constituency. Abdullah will have a main contest against the PDP’s Nazir in the byelection next month.
As Abdullah stepped up his electoral campaign, holding a series of interactions with various deputations and party workers at the NC headquarters here, he cautioned people against the “attempts being made to divide them and generate mistrust and hate between various segments of society”.
