Omar Abdullah Government in Crisis? 18 NC MLAs Revolt, Farooq Abdullah Steps In | J&K Politics

The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference government, led by Omar Abdullah, is facing severe political turmoil following reports of a major internal rift. Amid allegations that 18 MLAs have revolted against the leadership, party president Farooq Abdullah has stepped in to manage the mounting crisis. The controversy erupted after the ruling party issued a contentious letter appointing all party legislators as advisors to ministers. The Bharatiya Janata Party has launched a scathing attack on the administration, claiming the move is an desperate attempt to suppress internal dissent and control a brewing rebellion rather than ensure effective governance. Opposition leaders further alleged that the administration is being directly controlled from the Gupkar residence instead of the official Civil Secretariat, raising serious questions about the stability and operational transparency of the newly formed regional government in the union territory.
