Sajad Lone voices support for stable coalition Srinagar: People’s Conference leader Sajad Gani Lone has voiced his support for a stable coalition government in Jammu and Kashmir but hinted at a positive bias towards BJP, stating that a party at the Centre would help in expediting development process. “We are open to support any stable government in the state. There should be no uncertainty about the future of the government, whichever coalition comes up in the coming days,” Lone told. The ex-separatist leader who won the two assembly seats of Handwara and Kupwara in the recent assembly elections, said that an unstable dispensation cannot deliver on the development front. He said an alliance which has BJP as a constituent will be beneficial for the state. “The BJP is ruling at the Centre .... so a combination which has BJP as part of it, will be beneficial for the state in terms of expediting the development works in the state,” he said. The leader maintained that he was open to support a BJP-PDP alliance as much as an alliance between BJP and National Conference. On the ideological differences between BJP and PDP coming in the way of the two parties getting together, Lone said it was for the PDP to decide. “I cannot answer this question. This has to be answered by the PDP,” he added. In response to a question, Lone said his party was even ready to sit in the opposition.
