National Conference (NC) vice-president Omar Abdullah on Monday accused the Jammu & Kashmir Lieutenant-Governor’s administration of sabotaging simultaneous Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in the Union Territory (U.T.).
“Sad, the government of Jammu and Kashmir sabotaged simultaneous conduct of Lok Sabha and Assembly elections. It does not want people to have their own elected government,” Mr. Abdullah, who toured south Kashmir’s Kulgam district, said.
Mr. Abdullah highlighted the Supreme Court directions, where it directed the Government to hold Assembly elections in J&K by or before September 30, 2024.
