'Unnecessary speculations': Iltija Mufti on PDP extending support to NC

Srinagar, Oct 7: The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP's) candidate for south Kashmir's Bijbehara and the media adviser to chief Mehbooba Mufti, Iltija Mufti Monday termed reports of her party extending support to JKNC as 'unnecessary speculations'.

She said, the party's senior leadership will take a call on extending support to a secular front after the results are declared.

"Unnecessary speculations. Let me put the record straight. PDPs senior leadership will take a call on extending support to a secular front only once the results are out. This is our official stand," Iltija wrote on her official X-handle.

Earlier, JKNC chief and former chief minister of the erstwhile state, Dr Farooq Abdullah had welcomed the reports of Mehbooba Mufti extending support to his party to form a government.
