National Conference leader and former Jammu and Kashmir CM Farooq Abdullah on Thursday, 15 October, announced the People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration, with the aim to restore J&K’s Constitutional status as it existed before 5 August last year.
The announcement came after an all-party meeting at Abdullah’s residence in Srinagar, that was attended by Omar Abdullah and PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti, who was released after over a year in detention just two days back.
With this, the political parties in Kashmir gave a formal shape to their alliance formed after the revocation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir last year.
