Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday said that the alliance between the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) continues to be in place.
Speaking at a public gathering in Budgam, Abdullah discussed electricity usage and billing, noting that consumption should only be counted where meters are installed.
He explained that if a meter is unnecessary, it should not be used, and bills would rise in line with actual usage.
He added, “We have promised 200 free units, and God willing, we will fulfill that commitment. To benefit from this, do not fall for the PDP’s political tactics.”
Abdullah criticized the PDP, claiming its leaders installed meters in government offices but failed to pass any benefits to citizens.
He said as per KNS ,that under his government, assistance is available for the most financially vulnerable.
He further said that the PDP has misled people, overlooked past errors, and in some cases, arrested individuals, while forming alliances with the BJP. In contrast, the National Conference administration prioritized public welfare.
Urging voters to focus on development, employment opportunities for youth, and electricity charges, Abdullah said the electorate’s choice would determine governance for the next four years..
He specifically appealed for support for JKNC candidate Aga Mehmood in the Budgam by-election, scheduled for November 11. Abdullah recalled past elections where voters had elected him successfully and expressed hope they would extend the same support to Aga Mehmood.(KNS).
