Peoples Conference (PC) Chairman Sajad Gani Lone had earlier sought their support in elections.
According to KNS, Lone told media persons that PC has geared up its political outreach ahead of ongoing Lok Sabha polls, and in this connection an appeal is being made to political leaders falling under north Kashmir’s Baramulla segment to support and consolidate vote.
“I appeal to PDF Chairman Hakim Mohammad Yasin and DDC Chairman Budgam Nazir Ahmad Khan to extend their support to JKPC in north Kashmir’s Baramulla,” Lone said. He also said that seeking of electoral support is aimed to consolidate the vote ratio.
Notably Lone few days back had sought electoral support of Altaf Bukhari led Apni Party, and had continued that JKPC will lend its helping hand to Bukhari in Srinagar and other parts of Kashmir.
Meanwhile PDF Chairman Hakim Mohammad Yaseen reciprocated to the call of Lone, and announced that his party will support Sajad Lone in north Kashmir.
“I along with DDC Chairman Budgam Nazir Ahmad Khan had made a decision to field our own candidate from North Kashmir Parliamentary Constituency. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, we were unable to do so; The NC MPs who were in Parliament when Article 370 was abrogated did not even discuss the matter;. We believe that there should be a new and young face that can represent the aspirations of the people so we have decided to support Sajad Lone in the North Kashmir Parliamentary Constituency,” Hakeem Mohammad Yasin announced.
