| After quitting PDP, former mantri in touch with 3 parties | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 6: Even as a senior politician recently resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party, the former minister has kept his doors open and is understood to be in touch with at least three political parties.
The sources said apart from the Bharatiya Janta Party, the politician from north Kashmir is in touch with at least two regional parties.
Sources said while one party led by a businessman-turned-politician is offering him a “handsome package” for joining them, another recently floated party is also in touch with him.
Sources said the party, which has offered him “handsome package” has been in constant touch with him and wants the said leader to decide on the offer on priority.
Some senior leaders of another regional party are also in touch with him and are ready to offer him mandate for the much-awaited Assembly elections.
It was reliably learnt that the Bharatiya Janta Party is also in touch with him.
While the PDP has been losing most of its senior leaders in the last three odd years, most such “rebels” joined the party headed by the businessman-turned-politician.
The political activities have geared up across Jammu and Kashmir, more so, since the former Chief Minister and veteran politician Ghulam Nabi Azad quit the Congress and floated his new party, the Democratic Azad Party. Azad has been touring various parts of Jammu and Kashmir since.
As about the National Conference the grand old party has nominated incharge for all the forty seven Assembly constituencies in Kashmir province while the party acting President Omar Abdullah recently even visited the Ladakh Union territory.
The BJP, on the other hand, is equally busy across the Union Territory. The recent approval to grant Schedule Tribe status to the Paharai people of Jammu and Kashmir has only come as a shot in the arm of the right wing party. |
