Srinagar, Sep 20: Jammu & Kashmir Apni Party chief spokesperson Muntazir Mohi-ud-Din Friday stated that Omar Abdullah is a credible and effective voice of J&K in present circumstances. He said he withdrew his nomination papers after former chief minister filed his nomination papers from Budgam Assembly segment.
“Omar Abdullah is a credible and effective voice in current circumstances when everything has been snatched from people of J&K. I consulted my party leadership and workers on the matter and it was decided to pave a way for former CM so that he will raise people’s issues effectively,” Muntazir Mohi-ud-Din told reporters.
He said with the filing of nomination papers by former CM, the Budgam Assembly segment became high-profile constituency. “We are hoping the issues pertaining to Budgam people lingering from years will be resolved if Omar Abdullah is elected to power from there,” he said.
He further said the decision was taken with a motive to stop the division of votes in the constituency.
Notably Budgam Assembly segment will go for polls under phase-2 on September 25.
