JAMMU, Aug 24: Shiv Sena (UBT) J&K unit has claimed that NC-Congress alliance is not INDI-alliance in the Assembly elections of J&K.
In a press conference here today, J&K Shiv Sena chief, Manish Sahni has said that INDI-alliance is a big family of 39 parties including Shiv Sena (UBT).
He rejected the change in names of ancient Hindu religious place Shankaracharya Temple and historic place Hari Parvat as Takht-e-Sulaiman and Koh-e-Maran in the manifesto of NC and urged the Election Commission to look into the matter.
The Shiv Sena leader appealed to the Election Commission to extend the last date for filing nomination papers of candidates for the first phase of Assembly elections as August 24, 25 and 26 are holidays and the candidates are facing a lot of problems in completing the formalities.
He said after three consecutive holidays, August 27 is the last date for filing nominations and the Election Commission should extend the last date by at least two days.
Shiv Sena general secretary, Vikas Bakshi; vice president, Sanjeev Kohli; city president, Rohan Malwal and Rajesh Jandyal were also present on the occasion.
