The Sajad Lone-led Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Conference received a shot in the arm as three former legislators from the National Congress (NC) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) joined the party in Srinagar on Monday.

Former minister Syed Basharat Bukhari, who recently left the National Conference; former MLA Peer Mansoor, who was associated with the Peoples Democratic Party since its formation; and former MLC Khurshid Aalam, who had joined the PDP after retiring from services, joined the JKPC at a function in Srinagar.

The trio was welcomed into the JKPC by party chairman Lone and other senior leaders.

Mr. Bukhari said he was happy and given respect in the NC but "I could not get much done".
