YOU WONT BELIEVE: Nc congress to hold chief executive councillor post in lahdc kargil in rotation omar abdullah - You Need To See This

The National Conference (NC) on Monday questioned the Election Commission (EC) decision to delay elections in J&K, as the party described the Kargil hill council results as “a verdict against the Centre’s move made on August 5, 2019 to bifurcate J&K”.

“The ECI, when questioned about J&K elections, suggested it was “considering all factors”. What are the factors? It’s the fear factor of the BJP. It’s unfortunate, the ECI, which is a free and independent body, is taking decisions at the behest of the BJP. The ECI has no plausible reasons not to hold elections in J&K,” NC vice president Omar Abdullah said.
