Jammu And Kashmir Elections News

Amidst uproar, the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly passed a resolution asking the Centre to hold talks with elected representatives for restoration of the special status of the erstwhile state.

There was ruckus in the newly elected Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Monday morning - as it held its first sitting in six years - after People's Democratic Party lawmaker Wahid Parra tabled an impromptu resolution against the scrapping of Article 370.

The Jammu & Kashmir Cabinet headed by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has passed the resolution for the restoration of statehood.

Dalai Lama wrote to congratulate Omar Abdullah on his coalition's success in the recent Assembly Polls and his appointment as the Chief Minister of Jammu Kashmir in the Assembly polls.

Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal said it was a "constitutional misdemeanour" to have reduced Jammu and Kashmir to a Union Territory and asserted that it was time to restore its statehood.

Omar Abdullah entered politics in 1998 when he was elected to the 12th Lok Sabha at the age of 28, the youngest Member of Parliament at the time. 

This will be the first elected government in Jammu and Kashmir since the abrogation of Article 370 and the reorganization of the former state into two Union Territories.

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 Congress, notwithstanding its improved performance in the Lok Sabha election, is back to square one after its dismal show in Haryana and Jammu and Kashmir -- at the receiving end of harsh criticism from allies.

National Conference (NC) leader Omar Abdullah has expressed strong reservations about the Centre's potential move of nominating five BJP MLAs to the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly.

Jammu and Kashmir will get its statehood but there seems to be some small print involved, senior BJP leader Ram Madhav indicated today.

Three women, including former minister Sakeena Masood (National Conference), won elections on Tuesday to enter the male-dominated Assembly in Jammu and Kashmir.

The National Conference-Congress alliance may have won more seats in Jammu and Kashmir but the BJP has emerged as the single-largest party in terms of vote share, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Tuesday.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday, addressing party cadre after the stunning win in Haryana and impressive show in Jammu and Kashmir polls, singled the Congress and launched a blistering attack on Rahul Gandhi.

Jammu and Kashmir will not benefit from an "antagonistic relationship" with the BJP-led central government, National Conference leader Omar Abdullah told NDTV Tuesday, shortly after the NC-Congress won the 2024 J&K Assembly election.
