Special powers were given to take decisions related to posting, transfer, appointment of anti-corruption bureau and legal officers.
Opposition parties had expressed their opposition. These forces and the unnecessary interference of Manoj Sinha, the Governor of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, like the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi, will be a serious challenge for the new government. Similarly, the release of journalists imprisoned under the Prevention of Unlawful Activities in Jails Act can also be another challenge before the Omar Abdullah government. The National Conference and Congress alliance has achieved majority by winning 48 out of 90 assembly seats. Earlier in 2008, the National Conference and Congress alliance had taken charge of the government. In Kashmir, the National Conference joined forces with other mainstream opposition parties, notably Mehbooba Mufti's People's Democratic Party, Syed Lone's People's Conference, the banned Jamaat-e-Islami, Eng. Joined with. He has ensured his victory by weakening Rashid's Awami Ittihad Party. The situation of Jammu and Kashmir People's Democratic Party has never been so bad and the National Conference has never got such a strong majority. According to the results of Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Elections 2024, National Conference won the maximum 42 seats. Its rival Congress got 6 seats and CPI(M), AAP and People's Conference got one seat each. National Conference chief Dr. Farooq Abdullah said that the government will be formed in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir under the leadership of Chief Minister of India Omar Abdullah, who will take oath in the next few days.
Omar Abdullah won both the seats of Ganderbal and Budgam. The BJP won 29 seats in the Jammu region, while in Kashmir it fielded 19 candidates, all of whom lost. BJP state president Ravinder Raina also lost to the NC candidate from Nowshera seat by 8000 votes.

Can fight for. 'Kashmir' story but the people of Kashmir, MP from Baramulla, Engr. Rashid and his party's candidates lost badly. Why did this happen in Jammu and Kashmir with the Bharatiya Janata Party running the government in the entire country? After the removal of Articles 370 and 35-A of the Constitution, which give special rights to Jammu and Kashmir, curfew has been imposed in the Kashmir Valley, means of communication, internet and schools and colleges have been closed. The process of detaining active workers of opposition parties in Kashmir, putting them in jails and then under house arrest continues even today.
In fact, the BJP government at the Center snatched away the statehood by abrogating Article 370 and transferred the state to two Union Territories of Kashmir and Ladakh. Kashmiris felt this as a violation of their dignity and against their freedom of expression. On August 5, 2019, the first assembly elections after delimitation 370 were held in Jammu and Kashmir, in which the Union Territory will have its own elected government. During the first two phases of Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections on September 18 and 25, voter turnout was 61.37 and 57.31 per cent respectively. In the third and last round on October 1, 68 percent votes were cast on 40 seats in 7 districts.
During the election campaign, major parties like BJP, Congress, National Conference and PDP targeted each other on various issues like Pakistan, Article 370, restoration of statehood and withdrawal of Article 370, reservation etc. In the last round, the fate of 415 candidates including two former Chief Ministers Tara Chand of Congress and Muzaffar Baig was sealed in the voting machines. From the very beginning, we have been wishing for 'Mausam-e-Bahar' of peace and prosperity in Jammu and Kashmir. We are keen to see horticulture, handicrafts, hunters, houseboats, hotels, small businesses, happy faces of Kashmiris waiting for tourists. We support providing employment to unemployed youth without any discrimination. We are against the detention of innocent youth during harsh search operations, torture during detention and their disappearance. We support bridging the gap between Delhi and Srinagar, ending separation, distrust and creating an environment of harmony in the hearts of the Kashmiri people. We are also against the protection of innocent children by the security forces. We are keen to establish the above mentioned items in 'New Kashmir'. We appreciate the enthusiasm of the Kashmiri people to vote. Kashmiri people have taken a firm resolve to elect 'their own government'. It is a good sign that there is no election boycott, no bandh, no strike etc.
In the areas where there was silence, where there was zero percent voting, election campaigning was being done vigorously with lots of banners and loudspeakers. People are saying that we have lost a lot of 'ours'. We will support only that which will bring peace, tranquility and prosperity. No party got majority in the 2014 elections. PDP got 28 seats (22.67% votes), BJP got 25 seats (22.98% votes), Congress got 12 seats (18.01% votes) and National Conference got 15 seats (20.77% votes). Then there was an alliance between PDP and BJP. Mehbooba Mufti became the Chief Minister but the government fell after BJP withdrew its support. Mehbooba Mufti was saying, “BJP government will never be formed in Jammu and Kashmir and no secular government will be formed without the support of her party.” But his dream was broken. Now a government is going to be formed in Jammu and Kashmir under the leadership of NC Deputy Chief and former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, which is facing many challenges.
