“He is bad in Mathematics”: JP Nadda after Omar Abdullah blamed Centre for low voter turnout in second phase of JK polls

Union Minister JP Nadda on Friday hit back at National Conference Vice President Omar Abdullah over his statement blaming the central government for ‘lower voter turnout’ in the second phase of the Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections.

Nadda, denying Omar Abdullah’s claim, said “he is bad in mathematics”.

Speaking at a press conference, JP Nadda said, “If one wants to see the poll percentage, it used to be 6 to 8 per cent but today it is 58 to 60 per cent. If he was bad in mathematics, what could I do? There was 60 per cent voting in the first phase and 58 per cent in the second phase.”

On Thursday, Omar Abdullah said that the central government is ‘partially responsible’ for the ‘lower voter turnout’.

“I was hoping for a little more turnout. Because there was no call for the boycott. There were no attacks. There was no attempt to suppress and threaten the voters. But I think the central government is also partially responsible for this situation. They have tried to present high turnout as a sign of normalcy at different places,” Omar Abdullah said.

The second phase of J-K assembly polls recorded a turnout 57.31 per cent was in phase-2, the Election Commission of India (ECI) said in a press release.
The ECI said that Budgam recorded 62.98 percent voter turnout till 11.45 pm, Ganderbal recorded 62.51 percent voter turnout, Poonch recorded 73.80 percent voter turnout, Rajouri recorded 70.95 percent voter turnout, Reasi recorded 74.70 percent voter turnout and Srinagar recorded 29.81 voter turnout.

Polling was conducted across six districts of Budgam, Ganderbal, Poonch and Jammu regions of Rajouri, Reasi and Srinagar, with 25.78 lakh electors eligible to cast votes to decide fate of 239 candidates in the second phase. The first phase of assembly polls was held on September 18.

The third and final phase of voting will take place on October 1, while the counting of votes will be held on October 8. Assembly elections are being held in the Union Territory nearly a decade after the last polls and are the first since the abrogation of Article 370.
