Lok Sabah results in favour of PDP were not unexpected: Khurshid Alam

Srinagar: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader Khurshid Alam on Saturday said that the Lok Sabha results in which his party bagged all three seats in Valley were much anticipated and are wrongly being portrayed as unexpected results.

Talking to KNS, Alam said: “We had expected these results much earlier and this time the youth have played an important role in bringing the change.  The youth of Kashmir have also conveyed their message to the whole world that they want change and these sentiments would be respected by the PDP.”

The PDP leader expressed gratitude to the people of Srinagar who voted in favour of PDP candidate Tariq Hamid Karra. “We are thankful to the people who voted in support of PDP across the state especially the voters of Srinagar who despite all odds including intimidation and harassment by National Conference voted in support of PDP. We assure them of full support and their aspirations would be fulfilled,” he said, while informing that the PDP is in touch with the people of Srinagar which has resulted into decimations of NC in Srinagar.
