Congress and the National Conference- two main constituents of the INDIA alliance in J&K, are fighting it out for the majority of the Parliamentary seats in the Union Territory.
Without reacting to the verdict of the Supreme Court on Article 370, Congress demanded that the job and land rights of the people of J&K should be protected under Article 371.
Instead of initiating some steps to keep the enraged politician in good humour, Congress leadership decided to snap nearly six decades-long relations with Dr. Karan Singh by accepting his request.
Loyalists of Azad, who recently joined Congress, said that Democratic Progressive Azad Party failed to connect with grassroots issues. Realizing that their future is bleak in the newly floated party, supporters of Azad returning to Congress for better political prospects.
On the one hand, a faction within National Conference has opposed leaving any Lok Sabha seat for PDP in the coming Lok Sabha elections, Congress on the other hand, initiated an exercise to lure workers of PDP and NC to join the grand-old party.
