Activists of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and National Conference (NC) were involved in an angry face off on Monday after the burnt effigy of Farooq Abdullah and shouted slogans against the Peoples Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) here.

Holding tri-colours, the ABVP activists assembled outside the Bathindi house of NC President and MP, Dr. Farooq Abdullah to express their anguish against the Gupkar Alliance - a joint platform of various political parties.

The local residents and NC workers also reached the spot after the ABVP activists burnt the effigy of Abdullah and PDP President Mehbooba Mufti. Both the groups confronted each other but timely intervention of the police personnel deployed there prevented the situation from turning worse.
