Srinagar:\u00a0<\/b>National Conference\u00a0on Wednesday<\/span><\/span>\u00a0accused Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC)\u00a0<\/b>President Saifuddin Soz of playing a \u2018double role\u2019\u00a0<\/b>in recently held Lok Sabha elections.<\/b><\/p>\n Talking to KNS, Nazir Gurezi, National Conference leader and minster of State Animal Husbandry, PHE & Flood Control, said: \u201cProf Soz has visited Gurez to pat Faqir Mohammad Khan former MLA and Congress leader who had openly boycotted NC\u2019s Lok Sabha candidate Sahreef-u-Din Shariq, which means that Prof Soz is involved in appreciating and supporting the Congress workers who boycotted National Conference candidate and voted for PDP in recently held Lok Sabha elections.\u201d<\/p>\n Gurezi, said that Prof Soz is appreciating the congress workers who voted against national Conference candidate in north Kashmir. \u00a0\u201cIt is now open that Prof Soz is involved in cross voting against NC candidate. He had disowned Faqir Khan and now he is receiving that person warmly. Soz Saheb is on record to distance himself from the statement of Faqir Khan in which he had said that he will boycott NC Lok Sabha candidate in Gurez.\u201d<\/p>\n The NC minister said that he is not sure about Prof Soz\u2019s clandestine support to Congress workers for supporting PDP candidates but in Gurez: \u201cThe way he (Prof Soz) has now received Faqir Khan shows that Prof Soz had two faces in the recently concluded Lok Sabah elections.\u201d<\/p>\n It may be recalled that on\u00a0March 23<\/span><\/span>,\u00a0<\/b>Faqir Mohammad Khan had announced a complete boycott of Shareef-u-Din Shariq, the coalition candidate who lost the recently held Lok Sabha elections from North Kashmir. Talking to KNS, Khan had said: \u201cThe Congress workers here have decided to go for a complete boycott of National Conference candidate as the coalition government has failed us on every front.\u201d He had alleged that the National Conference led coalition government has benefited only NC workers and the Congress cadres have been left high and dry. \u201cOur (Congress) workers have been ignored and neglected by this coalition government to the hilt,\u201d he said, adding that the Lok Sabha elections would witness a complete boycott of the NC candidate from Baramulla Lok Sabah constituency. \u00a0However, when contacted Prof Saifuddin Soz had told KNS that that Khan\u2019s opinion was his personal and the Congress had nothing to do with it. \u201cI am sorting out such statements. It can be an individual statement. We are duty bound to support our coalition partner in the three seats of Kashmir valley as they will do it for us in the three seats of Jammu and Ladakh.\u201d Soz had told KNS on\u00a0March 23<\/span><\/span>. \u201cI am thankful to the National Conference for its whole hearted support to our candidates. We have to go together and there is no question of not supporting the NC candidates in the three seats of Valley,\u201d Soz had told KNS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" He has gone all the way to pat Congress leader who boycotted NC candidate: Gurezi Srinagar:\u00a0National Conference\u00a0on Wednesday\u00a0accused Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC)\u00a0President Saifuddin Soz of playing a \u2018double role\u2019\u00a0in recently held Lok Sabha elections.
