We will never go with BJP to form govt, says Farooq Abdullah

Former chief minister and National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah on Saturday ruled out the possibility of his party cobbling up an alliance with the BJP to form a coalition government in Jammu and Kashmir. “Never…question doesn’t arise. 

We will never forge an alliance with them (BJP) to form a government in J&K,” he said here. He added that joining hands



with the BJP tantamount to committing political suicide by whoever does it. “Any party that will side with BJP will vanish in J&K,” he said.

He also said that the vote in the recently held J&K Assembly elections has gone in favour of the NC-Congress combine and against the BJP “but let the results be declared on October 8 which will make it clear who has won and who has lost.”
