Article 370 was removed, statehood was snatched. So I thought the turnout will be high, like 90 to 95 per cent.<br \/>\n\u201cThe increase of a few per cent hardly matters as it happens in every constituency of India. That way, we can not know whether the people are angry or happy (with the abrogation of Article 370 and snatching of statehood). It is a new thing for me,\u201d Azad told reporters while campaigning for his party candidate in Kulgam district.<br \/>\nAbout the rise in poll percentage in the militancy-infested areas like Tral town of Pulwama, the Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) president said the increase of few per cent in the turnout is normal after every election across India.<br \/>\n\u201cThere were some pockets affected by militancy. After 1994-95, the militancy started waning. Today the militancy is next to nothing. The areas affected by militancy also witnessed 30-40 per cent votes and the areas which were not affected, also had similar turnout,\u201d he added.<br \/>\nAsked about the protests in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (POK), the former chief minister said he had sympathies with the people of Pakistan as they did not get a democratic set up like India.<br \/>\n\u201cI pity the people of Pakistan as they did not get the kind of democratic Government that India has got. The generals either directly run the Government or their nominated people run the Government in Pakistan,\u201d he added<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16835\"
