SRINAGAR, Nov 5: JKNPP leader Prof Bhim Singh today alleged that BJP and National Conference were in a secret alliance with each other and this was evident from the statement made by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, who hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“BJP and NC have forged unholy alliance to rig the election jointly,” he alleged while addressing a press conference, here today.
Prof Bhim Singh demanded that EVM should be brought directly to Jammu and Kashmir from the manufacturers and not from Gujarat. Free and fair elections are the only way out to restore peace and normalcy in J&K, he added.
Alleging that Omar Abdullah Government did not provide security to the JKNPP candidates, Prof Singh claimed that the party candidates in Kargil and Gurez could not file their nomination papers because of security reasons. “I personally accompanied two candidates in Ganderbal and Kangan today for filing their nomination papers and none of them was provided with any security cover,” he said adding that all other parties, including BJP, Congress, NC and PDP have been not only provided with security but fuel and vehicles also.
In the meanwhile, four candidates of the Panthers Party namely, Abdul Rashid Ganai (Kangan), Ali Mohd Bawa (Ganderbal), Ghulam Rasool Malik (Sonawari) and Bashir Ahmad (Bandipora) have filed their nomination papers in the first phase in Kashmir province.
