CM Abdullah Questions EC's 'Delay' in Filling Vacant J&K Rajya Sabha and Assembly Seats

Chief Minister blames Pakistan for continued terror in Jammu & Kashmir

- 

SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has voiced concern over the "undue delay" in filling Rajya Sabha seats and conducting bye-elections to two Assembly seats in the Union territory.

The Union territory, with four seats in Rajya Sabha, has been unrepresented in the Upper House of Parliament since February 15, 2021, the day when Ghulam Nabi Azad and Nazir Ahmed Laway finished their term.

Two other members, Fayaz Ahmed Mir and Shamsheer Singh Manhas, had completed their term on February 10, the same year.
