| Infighting Continues | | |
Former loyalists of Ghulam Nabi Azad, who left his Democratic Progressive Azad Party and rejoined Congress are reportedly struggling to get their positions back in their parent party.
Seventeen loyalists of Azad, including two political stalwarts, who were expelled from DPAP, had rejoined the Congress party in New Delhi on January 6, 2023.
Since then they are finding it hard to get back their old positions in the Congress Party. It seems that the leaders who had not left the Congress in J&K are not ready to give them back their positions as many of them believe that these leaders caused irreversible damage to the party’s image by quitting the grand old party of the country.
The infighting in the Congress Party is nothing new. It’s an open secret that the Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress has always been marred by factionalism with leaders divided in groups.
If the Congress leaders in J&K fail to resolve the issues that are confronting them it can have a direct impact on the results of the forthcoming assembly elections in the Union Territory. After 2019, many small regional parties have made inroads into the erstwhile bastions of the Congress Party and have emerged as a challenge for it.
If the Congress leaders keep on fighting with each other, they will make it easy for their opponents to score points over them and this can spell doom for the party in the assembly elections which could be held later this year.
According to media reports the Congress high command has directed the JKPCC to restore the positions of the leaders who had left the party along with their political mentor Ghulam Nabi Azad.
Since the day Azad has floated his own political party, he is busy addressing the political rallies and is making his presence felt on the ground on the other hand the Congress leaders are finding it hard to put their act together. They are too involved in playing games with each other. Their political opponents are watching them keenly and many of them seem to have written them off.
Bharat Jodo Yatra had brought these leaders together but only for a certain period. After the yatra ended, the Congress leaders have once again gone haywire and it appears that they are striving for their personal rather than the collective goals. |
