LS poll: Azad to contest from Anantnag seat, take on NC, PDP

The Hindu  

Ghulam Nabi Azad, a former J&K Chief Minister and the Democratic Progressive Alliance Party chairman, will contest from the Anantnag-Rajouri constituency in Kashmir. “The party has decided to field Ghulam Nabi Azad as its Lok Sabha candidate from the Anantnag-Rajouri seat,” DPAP leader Taj Mohiuddin said. The announcement came a day after the National Conference decided to field Mian Altaf, who holds a sway among the Gujjar population, from the seat. The decision of Mr. Azad, a former Congress leader who hails from the Udhampur-Doda constituency, to contest from the south Kashmir will pose a challenge to Mr. Altaf.
