PAGD will continue to exist, premature to decide about election alliance: Farooq Abdullah

Speaking to mediapersons here in Srinagar, he said that the office of the PAGD will be never closed. “A democratic party can pass any resolution but final decision will be taken only after elections are announced in Jammu and Kashmir,” he said.
“Final decision regarding the things will be taken only after elections are announced and depends upon the situation. As of now no one can say anything,” he said.
