Hope Ganderbal will elect me again, Never taken any Election easy: Omar Abdullah
National Conference Vice President Omar Abdullah on Thursday said that he has never taken election easy, adding that he hope People of Ganderbal will elect him again.
Speaking to reporters here at Ganderbal Omar said that they are standing against the BJP with a united front and there was need to have alliance for Pir Panjal areas to keep BJP out.
According to KNS correspondent, On accusations that he has sacrificed his principles for power, Omar said that the people who are making such accusations are his own relatives.
“If they were bound by their own principles, then they should have stayed out of this as well”, he added.
He further said that while he believes the current assembly lacks the strength it should have, “we can only strengthen this assembly through this assembly.
Responding to a question that the Chief Minister cannot even transfer an MP, he said, “I will not go into that. But today, we are not electing a Chief Minister. We want to make him an MLA first, and then we will decide who will be the Chief Minister after October 4.”
Regarding concerns raised by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) that Er Rashid could influence witnesses and tamper with evidence, he said, “A voter does not decide on a bail. Bail is decided in court.”
He added that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) had similarly opposed the withdrawal of the case against Farooq Abdullah, but “the court decided, and the case was withdrawn.”
He also said the court will decide on September 4. “I think the NIA will fail their argument, just like the ED did.”(KNS)
