Congress will emerge as the single largest party in Jammu and Kashmir in the 2014 assembly polls, party's state chief Saifuddin Soz said today.
"Congress party will emerge as the single largest party in 2014 assembly elections in the state," Soz said while addressing a public meeting at Udhampur, 65 kms from here.
People of all three regions have realised that Congress can serve them better, he said, adding no coalition in the state could be formed with the support of Congress.
Soz said Congress has to accept the challenge of coming up to the expectations and aspirations of people and adopt more effective modes to serve them.
Soz is on two day tour of remote areas of Udhampur to address public meetings and interact with party workers to understand their problems.
He sanctioned Rs 10 lakh from his MPLAD fund for the development works at Udhampur.
