New Delhi:
Days after West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s “no UPA” barb, former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and National Conference (NC) leader Farooq Abdullah on Tuesday said that several Opposition leaders discussed strengthening of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) during a meeting with Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi in Delhi.
“It was a meeting about the country. We talked about how we can work together and move forward and how we can take out the country from this difficulty. A good agreement has been formed among us,” said Abdullah.
“Discussions have also taken place on how to strengthen the UPA and we are hoping that this will happen,” he said.
Reacting to Union Minister Prahlad Joshi’s statement that the NC leader must settle in Pakistan, Mr Abdullah said that Mr Joshi himself need to go to Pakistan.
