Modi’s acceptability unmatched; forget 2019, focus on 2024 LS polls, Omar tells leaders

Srinagar: As the Bharatiya Janata Party heads for a landslide victory in Uttar Pradesh, former  Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and National Conference President Omar Abdullah on Saturday said  Prime Minister Narendra Modi faces no competition in individual charisma.

“In a nutshell, there is no leader today with a pan- India acceptability who can take on Modi & the BJP in 2019,” Omar Wrote on Twitter.

While commenting on the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)’s performance trend in Punjab, Abdullah said it has emerged as a player in states outside Delhi.

Omar further said political parties have to forget the next parliamentary elections in 2019 and start preparing for 2024.

“At this rate, we might as well forget 2019 & start planning/hoping for 2024,” he wrote.
