Srinagar: People's Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba Mufti said on Saturday that she could not attend the opposition India Bloc meeting in New Delhi due to personal reasons.

"I can't go because my mother has had eye surgery," she said.

Top leaders of the opposition group will meet in the national capital in the afternoon to assess their performance in the Lok Sabha elections and chalk out their strategy ahead of the results.

Both the National Conference (NC) and PDP were invited to the India Blow meeting. NC President Farooq Abdullah left for New Delhi from Srinagar on Saturday morning.
