All eyes on Azad’s March 20 meeting in Jammu | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Mar 16: Amid infighting in the Congress after the humiliating debacle of the party in five states, rebel leader Ghulam Nabi has called a meeting of his supporters on March 20 at Jammu to devise a future course of action. This meeting is significant because the party high command has not listened to Azad’s suggestions in the recently held Congress Working Committee meeting. After being completely sidelined by the high command, Azad-former leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha, is visiting Jammu on March 20 to hold interaction with his supporters. A senior leader of Congress, who owes his allegiance to Ghulam Nabi Azad, said that the dissident leader will take a final decision after holding interactions with his supporters at Jammu on March 20. “Messages have been given to all loyalists of Azad, across Jammu and Kashmir, to attend the meeting and give their suggestions regarding the future course of action”, he said, wishing anonymity and disclosed that Azad loyalists have already started the exercise to prepare lists of their supporters at grass-root level. Although Ghulam Nabi Azad has yet not announced his future course of action, his supporters have already started a campaign to mobilize support for a new political party in Jammu and Kashmir. Azad supporters are trying to rope in potential leaders of other political parties to join their group to create an alternative in Jammu and Kashmir in general and Jammu province in particular. Notable during his earlier visit to Jammu and Kashmir Azad had stated that anything can happen in politics. He gave this statement on the query regarding the formation of a new political party in J&K. “There are chances of the formation of a new political party but we are waiting for some time to take a final decision”, a loyalist of Azad said recently and added that the former Chief Minister was exploring all possibilities, he was in touch with leaders of other parties also. |
