Srinagar, Dec 23: Chairman, People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Parliamentary Board, Abdul Rehman Veeri, today directed party cadres in districts to gear up for the upcoming ULB elections in Kashmir.
Addressing a gathering of the party’s district presidents in Kashmir, Veeri stated that the ULB and corporation elections would be even more competitive than the Assembly elections.

In his address, Alam thanked the participants for their warm reception and reiterated the party’s commitment to working collectively for public welfare.
