Tanvir Sadiq, the chief spokesperson for the National Conference (NC) party in Jammu and Kashmir, addressed concerns regarding infighting within the party, particularly in relation to delays in cabinet expansion. He stated that such claims are unfounded rumors propagated by opponents who are dissatisfied with the NC's developmental projects across the Union Territory (UT). Sadiq reassured that all party legislators remain united. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah had previously suggested that the cabinet could expand to include three additional ministers, but this has yet to occur, raising concerns about potential delays. Following provincial meetings attended by party leaders, Sadiq noted that the discussions focused on assessing government performance and addressing issues raised by party members. Farooq Abdullah, the NC president, emphasized the strength of the INDIA alliance, asserting that it remains operational.
