BJP today said that opposition National Conference leaders were "daydreaming" that the BJP-PDP coalition government would fall and Omar Abdullah would once again become the chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir.
"All possible permutations and combinations are being tried including daydreaming by the leaders of National Conference that he (Omar) would once again become the chief minister of the state," BJP state spokesman Arun Kumar Gupta said in a statement here today.
He was reacting to the tweet of former chief minister Omar Abdullah in which he had said that there was a possibility that BJP and PDP alliance would end.
Gupta said that National Conference after having lost the elections in Parliament, state assembly and Leh hill council has started "daydreaming".
"They are assuming that the governance of Jammu and Kashmir would somehow come to them either directly or indirectly or through their alliance partner Congress, who also lost in all the elections," Gupta said.
He accused the National conference of only harping on the flood relief package, after it lost the assembly elections in the state.
"Now since the package has been announced they (NC) have started saying that the package is not the only thing required. It is ironical that when the present government is seriously working, NC is busy in spreading rumours that alliance would come to an end," he added.
