Express News Service

SRINAGAR: The Presidential candidates would lose 9,280 votes in Jammu and Kashmir within the absence of a Legislative Assembly, and no consultant in Rajya Sabha.

Only 5 Lok Sabha members, together with three from National Conference and two from BJP, will forged their votes. 

While Droupadi Murmu is for certain to get 1,400 votes from the BJP MPs, Yashwant Sinha would get 2,100 votes from NC. Each MP has a vote worth of 700.

However, with J&Okay having no Assembly, the candidates would lose 6,480 votes, because it has 90 seats, with the worth of every vote until the abrogation of Article 370 being 72.

Also, J&Okay used to ship 4 MPs to Rajya Sabha, making 2,800 votes.

The J&Okay Assembly wouldn’t be part of this train for the second time.

In 1992, an analogous state of affairs arose because the Lok Sabha election couldn’t happen in 1991 as a consequence of insurgency.
