A member of the Legislative Assembly from the National Conference (NC) has publicly alleged that the recent rebellion led by party leader Aga Ruhullah is part of a broader 'Delhi plot' intended to fracture the party. The legislator claims that external political pressure from the national capital is driving the internal discord currently facing the Jammu and Kashmir-based party.

This accusation aligns with a narrative previously established by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah. Approximately one month ago, Abdullah publicly accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of actively attempting to poach NC legislators to destabilize his administration and split the party. While the NC leadership maintains that these actions are coordinated from Delhi, the specific evidence linking the central government to Aga Ruhullah’s current actions has not been detailed in public reports. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between the regional party leadership and the central government, with the NC framing internal dissent as a product of external interference rather than purely grassroots disagreement.
