| Major rehash in NC, Cong organizational set up | | | Asif Iqbal Naik
Jammu, May 17: After 6-0 rout in Parliament elections, both National Conference and Congress will witness massive organizational changes in the next few days.
Highly placed sources within the NC told Early Times that Party president Farooq Abdullah and working president and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah after assessing the poll debacle wherein PDP has taken the lead in 39 assembly segments of Kashmir valley out of 46 will take a final call on reorganization of party set up.
The sources said that in possible reorganization set up, few ministers in present coalition government will be asked to quit so that they can entrusted with the new role in party set up as only few months were left in upcoming assembly elections in the state schedule to be held in Nov-December later this year if all goes well within the coalition.
The changes within the party set up comes in wake of NC's 3-0 rout in Valley as PDP wave sweeps the NC which including first time defeat of former Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy Farooq Abdullah in his over three decade old political career.
The result was unaccepted for both the coalition partners and has shackles them since the outcome of the result as both parties draw black on all the six Parliament seats of the state.
Like in other parts of the country, Congress party headed by Saif-ud-Din Soz in Jammu and Kashmir is also likely to face the axe to pay way for reorganization of the Congress as party fails to retain its vote bank in Jammu where the party lost both seats including that of Congress stalwart and former Union Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad's Udhampur seat.
In Jammu, Congress lost both seats to BJP who leads in 23 Assembly segments out of 37 segments of Jammu province, While PDP was leading on two seats thus taking his over tally in the state to 41 assembly segments. The party other than Doda region fails to garner public support as a result of which two time Congress MPs Madan Lal Sharma lost badly to BJP State President Jugal Kishore Sharma by over 2.55 lakh vote margin and the situation was not different for Azad who lost to Jatindra Singh.
Like NC, Congress also might drop few of its Ministers to coup up the BJP and PDP wave in the state. The political analysts were of the opinion that rout for National Conference and Congress in the state will be more once the alliance between the two coalition partners Congress and National Conference comes to an end and both parties will contest the elections independently.
It is pertinent to mention here that after witnessing total rout in the state, there is storm smearing within the government and if sources within the Congress party are to be believed, the honeymoon between the two coalition partners will ended in a divorce soon. |
