National Conference (NC) vice president Omar Abdullah Wednesday said the BJP sending its top star campaigners including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh to Jammu indicates that their candidate in Udhampur seat is on a sticky wicket.
“The atmosphere (of support for the Congress) is very good. I saw the response across the Chenab Valley and in the Congress programmes in Kathua and Udhampur. I feel it will be very difficult for the BJP to retain this seat,” Abdullah told reporters here in south Kashmir.
The former chief minister addressed an election meeting at Larnoo in the south Kashmir district.
He said the BJP has sent its main campaigners to campaign for the seat from which Union minister Jitendra Singh is seeking his re-election.
