Dangerous ”Political crisis” in the National Conference, Sakina Itoo Criticizes Aga Ruhullah’s Protest outside CM’s Residence as ‘Cheap Publicity Stunt’
Minister for Health & Medical Education, Social Welfare, and Education, Sakina Itoo, criticized MP Srinagar and senior National Conference leader Aga Ruhullah Mehdi over his participation in a recent reservation protest outside Chief Minister Omar Abdullah’s residence, calling it a “cheap publicity stunt”.dangerous political crisis in the National Conference
Itoo, who is also a member of the cabinet sub-committee reviewing Jammu and Kashmir’s Reservation Policy, criticized Ruhullah’s tactics in an interview on a local channel, saying, “It’s the wrong way. It is not the right way to go and stand outside the CM’s house for a protest. Does Omar Abdullah have a magic wand that he will wave around and your job will be done? For cheap publicity, you get yourself clicked by the media and then claim that you are trying to pressurize the government”.
This comment came amidst growing tensions within the National Conference, as the party faces increasing divisions over political strategies and leadership.
“The government is doing whatever is in their hands and whatever is possible. We will do every endeavor which will be for the larger good of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. We will leave no stone unturned to help our people. The chief minister Omar Abdullah has already formed a cabinet sub-committee, and it is working. The committee will submit its report soon, and it will be best for all,” Minister Sakina Itoo said. Sakina Itoo’s remarks point out the widening gap between Ruhullah and other NC leaders, signaling deeper fractures within the party as it grapples with ideological differences and public posturing.
Recent developments within the National Conference (NC) have worsened party divisions. Aga Ruhullah, who has led protests demanding political change, continues to clash with the party leadership.
Ruhullah’s actions have sparked a war of words within the National Conference, particularly with CM Omar Abdullah, who recently urged Ruhullah to focus on statehood protests in Delhi instead of local issues. Ruhullah responded firmly, stating that he remains committed to the restoration of Article 370 over statehood, which he views as a hollow promise.
