People's Democratic Party chief Mufti Mohammad Sayeed is likely to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi here on Friday over government formation in Jammu and Kashmir.

During the meeting, Sayeed and Prime Minister Modi are likely to finalize the modalities of government formation in the state and give final touches to the Common Minimum Programme.

Sayeed, during the meeting, is also expected to formally invite Prime Minister Modi for his oath-taking ceremony as the next Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir.

The PDP chief will reportedly take charge as the Chief Minister on March 1.

After J-K elections threw up a hung verdict, the Bharatiya Janata Party and the People's Democratic Party had earlier stated that the state would soon have a government under their alliance, adding that their union was formulated keeping peace of the state in mind.

 

The PDP had emerged as the single-largest party in J-K with 28 seats.

The BJP won 25 seats, with the National Conference and Congress winning 15 and 12 seats respectively.
