Srinagar
In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, the Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) on Friday joined the People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD), an amalgam of several parties in the territory seeking restoration of the special status of Kashmir.
Two Congress leaders participated in a meeting of the alliance at PDP president Mehbooba Mufti’s ‘Fairview’ residence at Gupkar in Srinagar. Mufti is also the vice chairman of the alliance, led by National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah.
“We stand by the alliance,” Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Monga told reporters outside Mufti’s residence. After the meeting at Mufti’s residence, the PAGD leaders will meet again at NC headquarters ‘Nawa-i-Subah’ in Srinagar, today.—KMS
