Srinagar, July 2: Former chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Monday dismissing speculations about a possible PDP-Congress alliance to form the government in Jammu and Kashmir, terming it as a "utter fabrication".

"Amused at media speculations about a possible PDP-INC alliance to form the govt in J&K. Conjecture also includes an impending meeting between Sonia ji & I. This is utter fabrication and yet another unfortunate example of fake news," tweeted Mufti.

However, on being asked if the Congress wants to form the government in the state, senior Congress leader Ambika Soni said, "We met to discuss the situation arisen out of the imposition of President's Rule. We are preparing for elections."

One being asked about the possibility of alliance, She said, "There is no such thing on the table. How can you make a government with the one who have failed in delivering the promises they made to the people of Jammu and Kashmir."
