Jammu, Jan 17: A day after the National Conference staked its claim on the majority of the Lok Sabha seats in Jammu and Kashmir, Congress on Wednesday flexed its muscle to launch a counterattack on its coalition partner. As general secretary of the National Conference Ali Mohammad Sagar ruled out giving any of the three Lok Sabha seats of the Kashmir Valley to the constituents of the Indian National Development Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) block, Congress on Wednesday devised its strategy for the Anantnag-Rajouri Parliamentary Constituency.
Important to mention here that Ali Mohammad Sagar has made it clear that there was no reason to leave the Anantnag Lok Sabha seat for coalition partners as this seat was won by the party (NC) in the 2019 Parliamentary elections. “As per the directions given by AICC, coordinator for Anantnag-Rajouri Parliamentary Constituency and former Minister J&K Yogesh Sawhney, today chaired a crucial meeting with the District Presidents regarding the upcoming Parliamentary elections”, reads a handout issued by the party.
