Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Thursday said he did not run away from Ganderbal, a bastion of the Abdullah family, from where he is a sitting MLA.
He filed his nomination from Beerwah, one of the two Assembly segments he is contesting. He is also contesting from the Sonawar Assembly segment.
“I did not run away from Ganderbal. I have worked in Ganderbal and there is hardly any village (in the constituency) where I have not worked,” he said, addressing a rally in this town in Budgam in the Kashmir Valley. Mr. Abdullah asked the BJP to clarify its stand on Article 370 that gave a special status to Jammu and Kashmir since the party was talking in different voices in different parts of the State on its abrogation.
