Refuting any pre-poll alliance ahead of Parliamentary elections, the senior Abdullah said NC will contest elections on its own. “NC will contest elections on its own and there is no second opinion in it,” he said.

The NC President while replying to a query on ED summons said that if they think NC will vanish with summons and arrest of Dr. Farooq Abdullah, then they are wrong. “I am going to appear before ED, but I want to make it clear if they think this act will push NC to disappearance then they are wrong,” he said.
