SRINAGAR: Upset over the  Election Commission’s decision not to hold Assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir along with the parliamentary polls, the National Conference (NC) has decided not to meet the EC delegation arriving in the state  on Thursday. 

The  NC had nothing more to add to its demand of having simultaneous Lok Sabha and Assembly polls in the state, a party spokesperson said. 

Three special observers will be in Srinagar on Thursday to assess the ground situation for holding Assembly elections. They will interact with the representatives of various political parties and district election officers during their two-day visit.
