"For us, resolving the Kashmir issue is the priority. Then come unemployment, inflation, the environment, and drug addiction " - MEHBOOBA MUFTI
Q. What is the significance of this election?
• OMAR ABDULLAH: This assembly election has come after much kicking and screaming on the part of the government of India. Left to them, we wouldn't have had this election. This election has been foisted upon them by the Supreme Court ordering that it be completed before the 30th of September.

• MEHBOOBA MUFTI: New Delhi is trying to project as if it has done us a great favour. Despite claiming that they have improved the situation, it took 10 years to hold an election that should have been a routine thing in a democracy. That is unfortunate.
