National Conference Forms Advisory Groups to Address Internal Dissent Among MLAs
Following internal dissent after a recent cabinet expansion, National Conference president Farooq Abdullah has proposed forming informal advisory groups of MLAs linked to individual ministers. Legislators are asked to submit preferences for ministers to join up to two advisory groups, aiming to improve coordination and involvement in governance. This initiative responds to concerns from dissenting MLAs seeking greater participation in policy and departmental matters, with the process expected to conclude within two weeks.
