Congress National Conference Alliance Jammu And Kashmir

The Congress will not be part of the new Jammu and Kashmir government - despite having allied with Chief Minister-elect Omar Abdullah's National Conference to win last month's election - sources told NDTV Tuesday morning.

The Aam Aadmi Party will support the incoming National Conference government in Jammu and Kashmir, Arvind Kejriwal's outfit has said.

The Congress has been relegated from a junior partner in the incoming Jammu and Kashmir government to a relative non-entity, after four independent MLAs extended support to the National Conference, the 'big brother' in the alliance that won the poll.

The National Conference and the Congress on Tuesday won the Jammu and Kashmir election - the first since special status was scrapped in 2019 and the first in the former state in a decade - defying exit poll predictions of a hung Assembly.

The alliance of the Congress and the National Conference is predicted to win the most seats in Jammu and Kashmir, according to a poll of polls.

Noting that his party has "surrendered" seats to forge an alliance with the Congress for the Assembly polls, former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah has said that such adjustment has to be done.

The Congress was ready to contest on its own all 90 seats in the Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections and the alliance with the National Conference was forged under a "national compulsion", Pradesh Congress Committee chief Tariq Hameed Karra said on

National Conference (NC) vice president Omar Abdullah Friday said the pre-poll alliance with the Congress for the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly polls was not an easy decision as the party had to "sacrifice" many seats it felt it had a chance to win.

Congress and National Conference have reached a deal to share J&K's 90 Assembly seats ahead of next month's election, senior leaders from each side said Monday, bringing talks to a end hours before the deadline to file nominees for the 1st phase.

With the clock ticking on finalising candidates for the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly election, Congress has rushed troubleshooters to Srinagar to clear the roadblocks in its seat-sharing talks with National Conference.

Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday fired 10 questions at the Congress after the party said it had all but agreed an alliance with the National Conference for next month's Jammu and Kashmir election.

The Congress and National Conference's pre-poll alliance was finalised afterRahul Gandhi visited Farooq Abdullah's residence in Srinagar and held an hour-long meeting. Sources say there are still challenges on seat sharing.
