Opposition unity won't succeed unless Congress joins in: Omar Abdullah

Omar Abdullah after attending the Think Federal Conclave in Kolkata on Saturday said, “No effort towards opposition unity will succeed unless Congress is able to fight BJP in the way we hope.” The National Conference (NC) leader on the possibility of formation of a grand alliance said, “We are discussing how best can regional parties come together to take on BJP in general elections. It's an ongoing conversation. You have seen a number of efforts made particularly by Sonia Gandhi to bring opposition parties together. As we get closer to the general election in 2019 I'm sure it'll take on a greater shape.”
