INDIA bloc united despite poll setbacks: Dr Farooq

Srinagar, May 7: National Conference president Dr Farooq Abdullah on Thursday asserted that the opposition INDIA bloc remains fully united, dismissing suggestions of any cracks following the recent electoral setbacks.
The former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister said the party’s highest decision-making body has held detailed deliberations on strengthening inter-party coordination within the alliance and reviewing major political developments.
“We are together. There is no division in the INDIA bloc,” Dr Abdullah said.
He also raised strong concerns over alleged electoral malpractices, accusing certain quarters of “vote theft.” Dr Farooq Abdullah expressed hope that the matter would eventually reach the Supreme Court for a fair and transparent verdict. (KNS)
