J&K govt formation: Mehbooba likely to call meeting soon

March 20, 2016 14:35

PDP President Mehbooba Mufti is likely to call a meeting of senior party leaders in the coming days to clear the "misgivings" about the deadlock over government formation in Jammu and Kashmir with BJP.

"The PDP president is likely to hold a meeting with senior party leaders in the next few days to inform them about the last week's developments on government formation," sources in the PDP said.

The sources said the date of the meeting has not been finalised yet as several senior party leaders are stuck in Jammu "due to closure of the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway".

The PDP and the BJP failed to end the deadlock on government formation as the meeting between their respective party presidents -- Mehbooba and Amit Shah on Thursday -- could not make any headway.
