How did the BJP get four extra votes when there was no cross-voting of the National Conference MPs? Our polling agent scrutinized each ballot slip, which revealed that all JKNC votes in all four elections remained in favor of the candidates. None of our MPs cross-voted, so the question arises – where did BJP’s four extra votes come from? Who were those MPs who deliberately spoiled their votes by marking wrong preferences at the time of voting? Do they have the guts to come forward and admit that they helped the BJP after promising to vote for us? What pressure or greed forced them to make this choice? Let’s see if anyone from BJP’s secret team confesses that he has sold his soul or not! In another tweet, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah heartily congratulated his party colleagues on their victory in the Rajya Sabha elections. He wrote that congratulations to my colleagues Chaudhary Mohammad Ramzan Saheb, Sajjad Kitchlu and Shammi Oberoi for their victory in the Rajya Sabha elections. I wish him all the best in a new innings representing the people of Jammu and Kashmir in the Parliament of India.
