Whither Congress

JK Pradesh Congress President Ghulam Ahmad Mir and Congress Working Committee member Tariq Hameed Karra
Having been a part of Kashmir politics for decades, Congress is seemingly a non-existent force in Jammu and Kashmir.
There are hardly any signs of its revival in the near future as it lacks a leader, who can pull it out from the political comma. Senior leader and former chief minister Ghulam Nabi Azad, who many believe was having acceptability both in Kashmir and Jammu regions in the past and had the potential of re-strengthening the party, has since drifted away. Other leaders do not have the clout to bring back Congress on the political map in near future.
