National Conference leader Omar Abdullah on Friday claimed that the BJP-ruled Centre was fielding independent candidates against him in the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly elections in a bid to silence him.
“I always knew that Delhi would want to silence me in some way but I never thought that they would go to this extent.

He defeated me in the elections,” he said.
