New Delhi: PDP patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday morning ahead of the PDP-BJP forming a coalition government in Jammu and Kashmir.

Mr Sayeed, who reached New Delhi Thursday evening, is likely to be sworn in as Chief Minister on Sunday, March 1, with the BJP’s Nirmal Singh becoming Deputy CM.

Sources said some last-minute glitches over the PDP demanding talks with the Hurriyat as part of the agenda for the new government, which the BJP has apparently agreed to.
