New Delhi — All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) President Asaduddin Owaisi stated on Wednesday that National Conference (NC) leader Omar Abdullah would be the weakest Chief Minister in Indian history.
After the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) failed to secure a single seat in Kashmir, Owaisi remarked that the people of Kashmir had expressed their anger over the abolition of Article 370.
Speaking to ANI, Owaisi said, “Omar Abdullah will be the weakest CM in Indian history. The people of Kashmir have shown their anger against the abolition of Article 370 and delivered a very decisive verdict. The BJP wanted to divide the Pahadis and the Gujjars, but that did not happen. BJP has won 27 seats in Jammu, and Congress has won just one, which is the main concern…”
The results of the J&K assembly elections were declared on Tuesday, October 8. The JKNC led the alliance to victory with 42 seats, while Congress secured six. The BJP also performed well, winning 29 seats.
Owaisi stressed that secular parties need to introspect and plan for the upcoming state assemblies.
Further opposing the abolition of Article 370, Owaisi called the bill ‘constitutionally wrong’.
“My party opposed the bill abolishing Article 370. One of the provisions allows the LG to appoint five MLAs, which I believe is constitutionally wrong. If the sitting CM cannot appoint MLAs, but the LG, appointed by the PM, can, then what is the role of the CM?” he added.
This was the first election in Jammu and Kashmir since the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019 and its bifurcation into two Union Territories. — (ANI)
