Jammu Kashmir Elections: Congress, PDP Back NC Against BJP
In Jammu and Kashmir, the Congress and People’s Democratic Party (PDP) have joined forces with the National Conference (NC) to challenge the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections. This alliance is part of a larger political strategy to prevent the BJP from gaining more influence in the region’s upper house representation. The three opposition parties have decided to support a joint NC candidate to ensure a united front against the BJP. This move highlights a renewed effort to revive secular and regional unity in the Union Territory, where political competition has been intense since the abrogation of Article 370. By combining their votes, the opposition aims to block the BJP’s advance and demonstrate strong collaboration among non-BJP parties in Jammu and Kashmir.
