Jammu and Kashmir News: Congress was considered a junior partner in the assembly elections held in Jammu and Kashmir, but with the support of the National Conference, which won 45 out of 90 seats with the support of four independent MLAs, Omar Abdullah is now in a position to form the government even without support. Are from Congress. Four independents Pyarelal Sharma, Satish Sharma, Chaudhary Mohammad Akram and Dr. Rameshwar Singh supported.

These four independents won from Inderwal, Chhamb, Surnakot and Bani seats respectively. With this the number of support required for his government has increased to 45, which includes 42 from the National Conference and four independents. These 46 members do not include five members appointed by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha. This simply means that the Kashmiri political party does not need the support of Congress to run the government. However, the margin of majority thus won by NC is small and if any MLA defection, it could have a direct impact on the government, Congress has got only six seats in Jammu and Kashmir. In this way, Congress is sunset in the politics of Jammu and Kashmir.

But at present Abdullah is also not in a position to think for Congress. National Conference President Abdullah said that after the defeat in Haryana, Congress needs to conduct an internal inquiry. BJP has won power in Haryana with absolute majority for the third consecutive time. This shows that Congress has failed to take proper advantage of the anti-incumbency wave. The reason for this is his divisive leadership. Abdullah said don't waste our time behind the pole. But no one thought that exit polls could be so wrong. He said that 18 becoming 20 is understandable, but 30 becoming 30 and 30 becoming 60 is not. He asked Congress to come out of overconfidence and criticized unnecessary aggression. He said that the first elections are being held in Jammu and Kashmir after the removal of Article 370 in 2019 by Congress.

After this defeat, not only NC but also his allies from India Bloc have attacked him. In that too, Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena and Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress fiercely targeted the Congress, saying that Congress's overconfidence had taken them away. Even when the next elections are to be held in Maharashtra and Jharkhand, the allies are worried about the poor performance of the Congress.
