'They should wind up the alliance': Omar Abdullah on AAP-Congress fight over Delhi elections
Srinagar/IBNS: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah Thursday said the Opposition INDIA bloc should be dissolved if it was just formed for the Parliament election last year and there is no clarity on the leadership.
"I cannot say anything about what's going on in Delhi because we have nothing to do with Delhi Elections... As far as I remember, the INDIA alliance had no time limit. Unfortunately, no INDIA alliance meeting is being organised so there is no clarity about leadership, agenda, or our (INDIA bloc's) existence... They should wind up the alliance in case it was just for the Parliament elections..." Abdullah told reporters.

He made the remark while responding to a question on the Delhi Assembly election, which is witnessing a three-cornered fight between the AAP, BJP, and the Congress.
This comes even after the AAP and the Congress tied up for the Lok Sabha election months back.
Over the past few weeks, AAP and Congress leaders have been targeting each other in their campaign for the capital contest.
While Congress leaders have accused the Arvind Kejriwal-led party of corruption and poor governance, the AAP has alleged that the Congress has a secret alliance with the BJP.
Meanwhile, questions over the future of the INDIA bloc and its leadership have also emerged in the months following the general election, which saw a united Opposition make big gains.
