In yet another setback for the Opposition INDIA bloc, the National Conference has ruled out alliance in Jammu and Kashmir in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
NC president and incumbent Member of Parliament from Srinagar constituency, Dr Farooq Abdullah on Thursday put all speculations to rest, stating that the party will not enter into any pre-poll alliance.
Talking to reporters at party headquarters in Srinagar, Abdullah said that he wants to make it clear that NC is not going to enter into any alliance before the polls and will contest independently.
On being asked about assembly polls in J&K, he said that they are expecting that the elections will simultaneously be held with the Lok Sabha polls.
