"High expectations in J-K": BJP's Sajid Yousuf Shah ahead of counting day

Srinagar (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], October 8 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Sajid Yousuf Shah expressed hope ahead of counting of votes in Jammu and Kashmir saying that the BJP has high expectations from people in the valley.
Speaking to ANI, Sajid Yousuf Shah alleged that the opposition parties are ready to unite to assume power otherwise they stand against each other.
"We have high expectations from the people of Jammu and especially, Kashmir, so that BJP opens its tally in the Union Territory. Even after Farooq Abdullah created the Gupkar alliance, we see that all statements made by Mehbooba Mufti and her daughter were against NC. They need to clarify if they are together just for the sake of forming the government," the BJP leader said.
He lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership for facilitating the hosting of the Legends League cricket match in Kashmir after almost 40 years.
"Last night we saw international players in the valley. It is a perfect example of development and peace that such a big sporting event is being organised in the valley. Legends like Chris Gayle also came here. Manoj Sinha led administration and the PM Modi led central government have played a key role in making this possible," Shah said.
Counting of votes for the Assembly elections in both Jammu and Kashmir and Haryana is scheduled to be held on October 8. The polling in the valley was held in three phases on September 18, September 25 and October 1.
The Axis My India has predicted a hung assembly in Jammu and Kashmir with the National Conference-Congress alliance slightly ahead and the BJP tailgating the opposition.
According to Axis My India, the NC-Congress alliance can win 35-45 seats whereas the BJP can win 24-34 seats. Notably, the majority mark to form the government in the Union Territory is 46 and the prediction has shown no one above the mark. (ANI)
