"Omar Abdullah Takes a Swipe at AAP and Congress within Their Own Ranks"

In the aftermath of the BJP's sweeping victory in the Delhi Assembly elections, Omar Abdullah, Vice President of the National Conference (NC) and a key member of the INDIA alliance, has expressed concern over the lack of clarity regarding the alliance's leadership, agenda, and future.

Abdullah's comments come as no surprise, as he has previously voiced his displeasure with the internal conflicts within the INDIA alliance. He has publicly criticized the divide among the INDIA bloc partners, especially the AAP and the Congress, and called for an open discussion to decide the alliance's future strategy.

The INDIA bloc, formed with the aim of strengthening the country and putting an end to hatred within, has reportedly not held any meetings since its formation. Farooq Abdullah, the NC president, insists that the INDIA bloc is doing well and is permanent, not just for elections but for every day and every moment.

However, Abdullah has emphasized the need for the INDIA bloc to have a structured discussion on its future strategy. He warned that internal rifts within the INDIA bloc could harm its larger goal.

Meanwhile, Manisha Priyam, a political analyst, suggested that the Congress was eating into the AAP's votes in the elections. The Trinamool Congress (TMC) and Samajwadi Party supported the AAP, while the Congress contested separately, which weakened the AAP's prospects and benefitted the BJP.

In response to the elections, Abdullah shared a post from DeKoder on social media, commenting 'Aur lado aapas mein' (and continue fighting each other), in reference to the AAP and Congress.

The Supreme Court has ordered states and Union Territories to notify rules to register Sikh weddings, a fact not directly related to the main topic of the article.

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah made a comment criticizing the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Congress for fighting each other instead of uniting against the BJP in the Delhi Assembly elections. The future of the INDIA alliance remains uncertain, with Abdullah suggesting that if the alliance was only formed for the Lok Sabha elections, it should be disbanded to allow its constituents to work separately.
