The campaigning for the Udhampur Lok Sabha constituency is set to heat up in the coming days as Ghulam Nabi Azad-led Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) has indicated that GM Saroori will be its candidate from the seat.

Azad on Wednesday supported the candidature of Saroori, a former J&K minister, at a public rally at Chrar-e-Shareef in Budgam district. The BJP has already announced candidature of Jitendra Singh from Udhampur constituency.

Azad said, “For Udhampur-Jammu, it is my intention and I will discuss it with others that GM Saroori will contest. He is the most senior leader and four-time MLA and vice chairperson of our party. I think I am active, but he is more active than me. He is the appropriate candidate. We have not yet taken a final decision, but we have zeroed in on the name.” Azad said his party had not taken the final decision on fielding candidates on other constituencies in J&K.
