| Sheikh Jabbar’s expulsion likely to open floodgate in NC | | |
Early Times Report
Jammu, Apr 25: Within minutes after warning of party president Dr. Farooq Abdullah, National Conference (NC) expelled former legislator and rebel leader Sheikh Ishfaq Jabbar from the party for six years for indulging in anti-party activities.
Jabbar who was an MLA from the Ganderbal Assembly segment from 2014 till it was dissolved in 2018, was also the party’s district president for Ganderbal in central Kashmir.
Jabbar was expelled from the party within minutes after Dr. Farooq Abdullah warned those party members who are working against its interests, saying discipline is the most important thing and such people will not be allowed to remain in the organisation.
Dr. Abdullah was addressing a function at Ganderbal, which is home town of Sheikh Ishfaq Jabbar, who was not present in the function.
Since November 2022 National Conference leadership is facing revolt after the appointment of constituency in-charges for the next assembly elections in J&K.
After former MLA from Ganderbal Sheikh Ishfaq Jabbar broke his silence and revealed brewing anger among dedicated workers, Sameer Iqbal Bhat, zone president of the Youth National Conference (North), resigned from the post as well as from the basic membership of the party.
On November 2, 2022 the National Conference has appointed constituency in-charges for the next assembly elections.
Annoyed party leader and former MLA from Ganderbal Sheikh Ishfaq Jabbar has already raised a banner of revolt against the party leadership.
He told a local news agency that the party’s present leadership is “incompetent” to deal with the affairs within the party.
“Though I have been in politics for a long, I have been maintaining silence for quite some time. I am not in slumber. I will expose everyone at an appropriate time”, he asserted.
Sources in the NC said that expulsion of Sheikh Jabbar has opened a floodgate as many promising leaders are going to quit the party because senior leaders are indulged in projecting only their family members. |
