It's three-way fight among India bloc allies NC, Congress & PDP
Jammu and Kashmir is gearing up for a triangular contest between Congress, National Conference and People's Democratic Party.
This is one of the five seats where the NC and Congress-which entered into a pre-poll seat sharing arrangement on 83 of the 90 seats across J&K-decided to have a friendly contest. Both the parties failed to convince each other that their respective candidates had a better chance to emerge as a winner from here. The PDP, which still claims to be the part of INDIA bloc but is not part of any pre-poll alliance in J&K, saw an opportunity in the NC and Congress rivalry in this constituency and believe that they might end up as winners here.
Thus in Banihal, a town spread in the lap of Pirpanchal mountain and on the banks of Nalla Bischlari and connects Kashmir with the rest of the country, the contest is no longer friendly.
Viqar Rasool Wani of Congress, a two-time MLA and a former minister, has repeatedly targeted NC in his campaigns while Sajad Shaheen of NC is banking on the anti-incumbency against Wani. Imtiyaz Ahmad Shan of PDP is betting on votes from Gool and Sangaldan areas, which have been added to this constituency in the last delimitation exercise here.
«Omar Abdullah doesn't want a new leadership to emerge in J&K. Neither in his own party nor in any other party. NC will be a distant third in this election,» Wani told ET.
