That way alone the peoples verdict would truly be respected.Soz was apparently referring to the reported meeting between BJP and NC leadership, a development denied by BJP General SecretaryRam Madhav.Earlier, Omar said he had not cancelled or postponed his visit to England where his parents Farooq Abdullah and Molie are recovering from an organ transplant surgery.I dont want to spoil a good story but I haventcancelled or postponed my trip to England. I was always booked on the 27th of December, Omar said.Soz said Jammu and Kashmir has experienced blackest periods of its recent history through armed militancy and devastating floods that left thousands of people homeless and needy
