"NC is again resorting to their wild cries to repeat their old rhetorics to avoid accountability for their non performances and indulges in search of excuse to shift their responsibility for failure to fulfill popular aspirations of the state", Congress leader Sham Lal Sharma told a public rally here.
"Autonomy, revocation of AFSPA are irrelevant issues as NC has been exposed for divisive politics," Sharma said.
The NC's demand for autonomy is irrelevant ... As people of the three regions in the state need development, progress and prosperity, and are least bothered about any political gimmicks either from NC or someone else, Sharma said.

The Congress leader later explained his welfare works done in Akhnoor Constituency and urged the voters, including women, to cast votes.
