Soz describe Lok Sabha results in J&K tragic, congratulate winners

SRINAGAR: Describing parliament results in the Jammu and Kashmir as ‘tragic’, Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) chief Prof
Saifuddin Soz congratulated the winners. However, he alleged propaganda won over facts. In a statement here this evening Prof Soz said it is so tragic that despite our best efforts, the coalition candidates in the state
have lost the election.
It is further unfortunate that a person like Ghulam Nabi Azad has
also lost the election who had served the state during all these years.
The election will go down in the annals of parliamentary history
of India in which propaganda won over facts and truth got mixed with
falsehood of various shades, he alleged. But, he said, finally it is the peoples verdict and we have to accept it gracefully.
It is an occasion to congratulate the winners. It will be our endeavor to work harder and reach out to people and
continue to serve them best.
I feel convinced that India’s strong secular edifice will stand test of the times and the hallmark of India’s polity will continue
to be the unity in diversity, the statement said. (AGENCIES)
