Anantnag, Jan 29: Former Chief Minister and Vice-president Jammu Kashmir National Conference, Omar Abdullah on Tuesday accused Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) of approaching New Delhi to seek deferment of elections in the state.
"We made it clear that our party (NC) is ready for polls. As per Supreme Court orders election commission has to conduct elections in the state within six months but its Prime Minister Narendra Modi who has to decide," Omar Abdullah told media here at Kundroo Anantnag after visiting family of deceased party block President Shangus.
