  • Mufti earlier tweeted that PDP will stake claim to form the government in J&K with help of Congress and National Conference.

    She added she had been "unsuccessfully" trying to fax a letter addressed to Governor Malik, stating that she will meet him soon to stake claim as she isn't in Srinagar at present.

    She said she tried to contact him on the phone too.

    "The Congress and National Congress have also decided to extend support to our party to form a government... National Conference has a strength of 15 and the Congress 12. That takes our collective strength to 56," she adds.

  • Meanwhile, BJP critics say that dissolving the J&K Assembly is only an attempt to prevent the PDP-National Conference-Congress alliance from forming the government in the state.

    Mufti resigned as the J&K CM in June this year after BJP announced that it was withdrawing from the alliance with PDP in the state, which has been under the Governor's rule for the last five months.
