Srinagar:
National Conference president Omar Abdullah on Friday accused the police and the administration in Jammu and Kashmir of facilitating horse-trading and defections following the announcement of DDC election outcomes and alleged that some events had been utilizing cash, muscle and authorities coercion to make up the numbers.
Omar Abdullah’s remarks got here after Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party led by former finance minister Altaf Bukhari introduced that Yasmeena Jan — the District Development Council (DDC) member from Imam Sahib-I, in south Kashmir’s Shopian district — has joined the get together earlier within the day.
Mr Jan had contested the polls on the National Conference (NC) mandate.
“This explains why our leaders in Shopian district are being put under “preventive arrest” by the police. J&K police & the administration are facilitating horse trading & defections. The woman shown here joining the BJP’s B-team contested & won elections on an NC mandate,” Omar Abdullah mentioned on Twitter.
The NC vice chairman mentioned it was shameful for the administration to play “partisan politics”.
“Shame on this administration for playing partisan politics to curry favour with the ruling party & their stooges. These parties couldn’t win seats so now they are using money/muscle/threats & government coercion to make up the numbers. So much for “democracy has received”!” He mentioned in one other tweet.
The outcomes of the DDC elections had been introduced on Tuesday.
