Jammu, Sept 7: Former Chief Minister, Ghulam Nabi Azad who recently quit Congress to float his own party has extended his trip to the winter capital of Jammu in the wake of “overwhelming response from politicians and people something that can benefit his political ambitions.” Sources close to Azad said he was supposed to stay in Jammu from September 4 till September 6 morning when he was scheduled to leave for visit to his native Doda region. “In the wake of overwhelming response of the politicians and people who want to have detailed interactions with him (Azad), however, the trip has been extended by at least two days,” said the source. It was reliably learnt that more leaders from various parties have expressed their willingness to join him and that a media briefing would be held in this regard in the coming days. The insiders said Azad has been unable to move out of his Jammu residence in the wake of huge influx of visitors. “The meetings start from 9 in the morning and continue till late in the evening.” It was reliably learnt the Azad meets common people till afternoon whereas political meetings are held in the evening hours. The “core committee” of Azad’s loyalists sit with him at his residence in the late evening hours for “secret meetings on future course of action.” Its pertinent to mention that Azad made maiden visit to Jammu and Kashmir after submitting his resignation to the Congress when he addressed a mammoth rally in Sainik Colony on September 4. The senior politician is scheduled to float his own party in the coming days whereas he is yet to finalise the name of his party. As per the sources, the party will be floated only after the veteran politician concludes his present trip across the twin regions of Jammu and Kashmir. |
