Campaigning for J&K's Anantnag bypoll to end 6/19/2016 11:23:53 PM Early Times Report sRINAGAR, June 19:The low-key campaigning for bypoll to Anantnag Assembly seat in Jammu and Kashmir, from where Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti is contesting, will end on Monday. Mehbooba has only held a few meetings as part of her campaign to retain the seat for her party. Her father Mufti Mohammad Sayeed had won the seat in 2014. His death on January 7 this year necessitated the by-election. She is banking on the support extended by the people of the south Kashmir region to her Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) since it came into existence in 1998. The chief minister has not conducted any major rallies and is relying this time on some of the "trusted aides" to connect with the voters. PDP chief spokesperson Mehboob Beg, who has represented Anantnag twice in the past on National Conference ticket, will also be a key factor.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
