Our workers voted for Congress in Jammu but what they did in Kashmir was shocking. We will definitely raise this matter with the Congress High Command,\u201d Kamal said.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the party was surprised after the news report appeared that even Congress MLC Muzafar Parrey did not cast his vote. \u201cLeave his family aside, at least Parrey should have voted. State Congress president Professor Saif-u-Din Soz went to more restive place like Baramulla to cast his vote, but Parrey did not bother to vote amid thick security cover,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Kamal said that it is a wrong notion that there was any kind of alliance between NC and Congress party. \u201cIt was a seat sharing agreement just to keep People\u2019s Democratic Party away from grabbing power. We are waiting for the results and only after that our party will chalk out a strategy and take future course of action,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>NC legislator, Dr Shiekh Mustafa Kamal told CNS that Muhammad Shafi Uri is right and it is a fact that Taj Mohi-u-Din failed to convince his own workers to vote for the coalition candidate. \u201cTaj is an intruder. He is not a resident of Uri so he has no base there. Taj Mohi-u-Din is from Kathua and due to his failures, people in Uri don\u2019t support him while, Shafi Uri being the native of Uri has a mass appeal,\u201d Kamal said.<\/p>\n<p>NC-Congress alliance candidate had earlier admitted that the differences between the colition partners resulted in cross-voting in North Kashmir.(CNS)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Srinagar:\u00a0Ruling National Conference (NC) Saturday said that it was disappointed over the admission of some Congress leaders that its party workers indulged in cross voting in the recently concluded Parliamentary Elections in\u00a0Kashmir.
