Congress, BJP locked in direct fight on J&K’s 2 seats

In 2019 parliamentary polls, Jitendra defeated Congress’s Vikramaditya Singh by over 3.6 lakh votes while Jugal Kishore defeated Bhalla by over 3 lakh votes from Jammu seat. While Jitendra and Jugal would focus their poll campaign on Article 370 abrogation and welfare schemes, the Congress would bank on anti-incumbency factor and snatching of statehood and downgrading erstwhile J&K state into the Union Territory.For the Valley’s three LS seats, the contest would be between National Conference (NC) versus others. The NC has decided to contest all three Valley seats — Anantnag-Rajouri, Srinagar and Baramula seats.In 2019 polls, NC had won all the three Valley seats and has been insisted that it would contest all the three seats.
