Omar Abdullah’s Govt nears 100 days: Congress remains sidelined
1/21/2025 10:59:22 PM
Early Times Report

Jammu, Jan 21: As the Omar Abdullah-led National Conference (NC) government approaches its 100-day milestone on Thursday, a glaring political reality has come to the forefront—its coalition partner, Congress, has been completely sidelined in the functioning of the regime.
Despite both parties entering into a pre-poll alliance, Congress has had little to no involvement in the decision-making or functioning of the administration.
Since the declaration of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly election results on October 8, 2024, the Congress party has found itself on the fringes of power.
The National Conference emerged as the single largest party, securing 42 seats in the 90-member Assembly. With the additional support of a few Independent MLAs, the NC was able to form the government comfortably. Omar Abdullah took the oath of office as the first Chief Minister of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir on October 16, 2024, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the region's political history.
However, the coalition between the NC and Congress, formed ostensibly to ensure stable governance, appears more symbolic than substantive.
Not a single Congress legislator has been inducted into the Council of Ministers, effectively denying the party any significant role in governance. Furthermore, no formal meetings or consultations between the tw

coalition partners have been reported since the formation of the government. This lack of coordination has raised serious questions about the nature and future of the coalition.
The sidelining of Congress in the government has not gone unnoticed. Political analysts argue that this marginalization reflects the National Conference’s intent to consolidate its authority without sharing power.
This political maneuvering could have long-term implications for governance and coalition politics in Jammu and Kashmir. By ignoring its partner, the National Conference risks alienating Congress, potentially leading to discord.
As of today, the Omar Abdullah government has completed 98 days in office. The administration has claimed some progress in addressing governance and development challenges in the region.
Congress leaders, though largely silent in public, are reportedly unhappy with their exclusion from the power structure.
As the government prepares to mark its 100th day, all eyes are on how the coalition dynamics unfold. Will Omar Abdullah and the National Conference choose to mend fences with Congress and foster a more inclusive governance model, or will the sidelining continue, risking friction within the alliance? The coming days will be crucial in determining the trajectory of this coalition and its impact on the political landscape of Jammu and Kashmir.
