Srinagar, Mar 20:

The National Conference (NC) and Peoples Conference (PC) faced a setback as two of their DDC members joined the joined Ghulam Nabi Azad- led Democratic Progressive Azad Party.

District Development Council member Sagam, Anantnag on Monday joined DAP in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district.

This is third party Parrey has joined in his political career. In 2020, he had contested DDC polls on NC ticket and won from Sagam. In 2022, he had joined Peoples Conference.

This is the second joining of a DDC member in Azad- led party in past 24 hours. On Sunday, DDC chairman Anantnag Muhammad Yosuf Gorsi joined Azad- led party.

The National Conference district development chairman Anantnag, Muhammad Yosuf Gorsi on Sunday joined Ghulam Nabi Azad-led Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP).

Speaking on the occasion, Gorsi said “I joined DPAP only because I believe Ghulam Nabi Azad can take Jammu Kashmir out of the present situation.”
