Admits PDP wave in the state, says party will sweep LA polls
Srinagar: Admitting that the state is witnessing the PDP wave at present and the party is going to make the next government here, senior Congress leader Gulam Rasool Kar Saturday said that Congress must approach Mufti to save face in JK;s political scenario.
Kar while talking to KNS stated that the way PDP swept all the three seats of valley during the recently held LS polls vindicates that people now have identified themselves with the policies of the party. “It is for sure that PDP is going to make the next government in the state and the state Congress must forge an alliance with the party so that its image could be saved in state’s political world,” said a 93 year old Congress veteran who also was the member of the state constituent assembly.
Explaining the reasons for Congress’s debacle in the state, Kar remarked that ahead of polls in the state, there used to be the traditional in the state Congress that election on the party level was carried so that promising candidates could be fielded in the polls. “Now that chapter has been closed down and the results are before all of us and even my contributions for the party were undermined as I was not consulted ahead of the LS polls.”
Kar predicted that the state Congress will witness the likewise debacle during the forthcoming polls if the remedial measures are not taken at an earliest. “The state Congress must forge an alliance with the PDP so that its face could somehow be saved during the ongoing critical times.”
