Union Home Minister Amit Shah attacked the Opposition while addressing a poll rally in J&K asserting that this Assembly election is meant to remove the rule of three families from the Valley. Addressing a public meeting in Mendhar, Mr Shah said, "This election will be to remove the rule of three families from Jammu & Kashmir - Abdullah family, Mufti family, and Nehru-Gandhi family. It is important because these three families had kept 'jamhuriat' away in the Union Territory."
