Mehbooba wants to keep ‘backstabbers’ away 11/16/2023 10:58:52 PM Early Times Report Srinagar, Nov 16: Peoples Democratic Party led by Mehbooba Mufti is making desperate attempts to make a comeback as the party has been hit by the senior leaders and workers saying goodbye to the party one by one during the past few years. Sources told Early Times that the party has opened negotiation channels with the leaders from North Kashmir and attempts are being made to get them back. Soon after the abrogation of Article 370 and J&K’s reorganization one of the PDP founders had blamed provocative speeches of Mehbooba Mufti before Article 370 abrogation for J&K being turned into a Union Territory and it losing its statehood. If the sources are to be believed there is a possibility of a few leaders from North Kashmir returning to the PDP as they too have been struggling to keep their identity alive. Last week former senior PDP leader, Muzaffar Hussain Beigh and his wife had visited the residence of Mehbooba Mufti triggering speculations that Beigh wants to return to PDP but after that no further development has taken place. Sources said that some leaders from South Kashmir who had deserted the party have shown their willingness to return but Mehbooba, according to the insiders, is not interested in entertaining them. “She is not inclined to take the backstabbers back,” they added. Pertinently, Mehbooba’s efforts to woo the National Conference and other parties haven’t yielded any positive results and the Peoples’ Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) is almost defunct. “The PDP has realized that it cannot survive by taking the support of the other parties. It will have to regroup to make an impact on the ground,” an analyst told this newspaper. He said that Mehbooba and a few leaders around her will have to reframe a new strategy to strike a chord with people. “It’s known to all that PDP has no locus standi in the present political scenario. It may find it very difficult to hold the ground.”   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
