Discontent Grows in National Conference Over Omar Abdullah's Cabinet Reshuffle
The National Conference (NC) in Jammu and Kashmir faces internal dissent following Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's October 27 cabinet reshuffle. Around 10-15 MLAs, including senior leader Mubarak Gul, have expressed dissatisfaction over ministerial exclusions and held multiple closed-door meetings. Dissident MLAs have demanded changes in the cabinet and the removal of influential advisers. Party sources indicate a planned meeting with NC president Farooq Abdullah and Omar Abdullah on November 6 to address grievances, while the party downplays reports of rebellion.
