Peoples Conference chairman Sajad Lone has also staked claim for government formation in Jammu and Kashmir.
Interestingly, Lone made the announcement on social media, minutes after PDP president said she was unable to reach the government for staking claim for the government formation.
Lone shared a screenshot of the letter he had sent to the governor Satya Pal Malik’s PRO on his WhatApp messenger.
In the letter, Lone claimed that he had the support of Bharatiya Janata Party and over eighteen MLAs.
“I assure your excellency that with the support I have from the BJP and othe members of the state legislature, I will form a strong and politically stable government for restoring peace, harmony and prosperity in the state and would work towards overall development in all three regions of the state,” Lone, said in the letter.
