After National Conference, PDP Says Will Contest Lok Sabha Polls Alone

The INDIA bloc may be facing yet another crisis - to add to drama in Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and Nitish Kumar's walk-out in Bihar - after ex-Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti's People's Democratic Party said it is preparing to fight the general election on its own. This comes after a similar announcement by the National Conference who are set to fight alone in the Kashmir Valley. On record both NC and PDP still insist that they are with the India bloc.
