(MENAFN- Kashmir Observer) Srinagar – The PDP on Monday rubbished reports about the party considering leaving the opposition INDIA bloc and said it remains committed to the unity of the alliance.

The party's reaction came after reports in a section of the media claimed that the PDP had left the INDIA bloc and decided to contest the Lok Sabha elections on its own.
A similar controversy broke out last week when National Conference chief Farooq Abdullah said the party would contest the Lok Sabha polls on its own.
However, Omar Abdullah - Farooq Abdullah's son and the party vice-president - hurriedly convened a press conference to dismiss the suggestions, saying the National Conference remained committed to the INDIA bloc.
