Jammu Kashmir: Omar Abdullah seeks early elections in state

Former Chief Minister and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah demanded early elections in Jammu and Kashmir after the BJP pulled out of the PDP-led government. The Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti has also resigned. He met Governor N.N. Vohra following the fall of the PDP-BJP government in the state. He said, 'I met the Governor just a little while back. I told the Governor that in the 2014 elections, the National Conference did not have the mandate to form a government and today also we don’t have the mandate.'
