Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari of the Jammu and Kashmir Apni Party, contesting from Channapora in Srinagar, is the richest man in the fray, with total assets worth Rs 165 crore. His key contenders are National Conference’s (NC) Mushtaq Ahmad Guroo and People’s Democratic Party’s (PDP) Iqbal Trumboo. Bukhari is campaigning aggressively after his party’s drubbing in the Parliament elections, where it did not win any seat. Called Amirakadal before the delimitation of the J&K Assembly seats in 2022, Channapora had been won by Bukhari as a PDP candidate in 2014. Channapora voted on September 25 and the votes will be counted on October 8, 2024.
