New Delhi: National Conference president Farooq Abdullah has rejected speculations that Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah could resign or be replaced by him.

Speaking to Karan Thapar for CNN-IBN, Abdullah added that the Congress-NC government would complete its term in office in the state.
