Prof Soz called on the Prime Minister and also briefed him about the political situation in Jammu and Kashmir, particularly in the wake of coming state Assembly elections, scheduled for September- October this year, they added. Prof Soz, who is also the Union Water Resources Minister, gave a detailed account of the party affairs in the state. The sources said the JKPCC chief impressed upon the Prime Minister to resume the dialogue process with the separatist groups, including the moderate Hurriyat Conference, ahead of the Assembly elections.
