Jammu and Kashmir elections approaches, Ghulam Ahmad Mir, the Congress candidate from the Dooru constituency, stated on Saturday that the Bharatiya Janata Party is unlikely to secure more than 10-12 seats in Jammu.

«BJP will not even get a chance to be a part of the government, leave aside forming the government by their own. BJP wont go ahead of 10-12 seats. There is no other party in Jammu and Kashmir apart from the alliance of JKNC and Congress that can win 30-35 seats. So there is no other party in the UT with which BJP can form alliance to secure that many seats. The public of J&K has always taken a decisive decision and in the last phase also the public will teach them a lesson,» Mir said while speaking to ANI.
Earlier, National Conference Vice President and candidate for Ganderbal and Budgam, Omar Abdullah, expressed confidence in victory of National Conference and Congress alliance in the assembly polls and the formation of the government in Jammu and Kashmir.
«They (BJP) are not contesting that many seats to get a majority on themselves. They have left a maximum number of seats in Kashmir and they won't be able to win many seats in Jammu. But, if they are indicating that they have B, C, D, and E teams here and through them, they can fool people again, I want to say that people are more aware
