Omar Abdullah Faces Ultimatum from 25 NC MLAs Amid Cabinet Expansion
Twenty-five Jammu and Kashmir legislators have given Chief Minister Omar Abdullah a 14-day deadline to address their concerns, threatening to pull their support as he recently expanded his cabinet with veteran party members.
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah received a 14-day ultimatum from 25 members of the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly, who warned they could withdraw their support if their demands are not met. The move comes shortly after Abdullah reshuffled his cabinet, adding experienced party figures Ali Mohammad Sagar, Saifullah Mir and Shamim Firdous to the Council of Ministers.
The legislators’ warning underscores growing tension within the state’s ruling coalition as the chief minister seeks to balance internal party dynamics with governance priorities.
