SRINAGAR: Weeks after Sajad Lone s People s Conference pulled out of the People s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD), the coalition on Saturday suffered its second defeat in the battle for the chairpersonship of a district development council when cross-voting by its constituents enabled an independent candidate to trump her PDP rival in Baramulla.
Victor Safeena Baig had been tipped to get the votes of six members – three from the People s Conference, two from Altaf Bukhari’s Apni Party and an independent member – but she ended up with 10. Her PDP rival Qurat-ul-Bashir received four votes despite the Gupkar alliance having a combined strength of seven in the 14-member council. The Gupkar alliance had been dealt a similar shock in the election to the Budgam DDC chief s post.
SRINAGAR: Altaf Bukhari’s Apni Party is most likely to dominate majority of ten district development councils in kashmir valley shrinking political space of the Gupkar Alliance constituents of major mainstream regional parties like National conference and PDP with having already headed Srinagar and shopian DDCs .
While CPI(M) interestingly, headed by the highly terrorist infested Kulgam courtesy Gupkar Alliance. However, majority of DDCs in jammu division of union territory on expected lines is likely to head by BJP members.
AP Chairman Altaf Bukhari, who is looked as centre’s man in kashmir valley told TOI that the new set of political beings heading Srinagar and shopian DDCs do not have any association with the traditional politics, they are all young.
