00:00Let me now take you from Mumbai to Jammu and Kashmir.
00:03Has Cyclo National Conference come to a pause right now?
00:07Dr. Farouk Abdullah's intervention at the residence with Omar Abdullah where other MLAs,
00:12who were the rebel MLAs, did come in a meeting was organized.
00:15But what happened in return was interesting.
00:17Farouk Abdullah came out and speaking to the media persons after that meeting,
00:21very clearly said that for now he has heard the grievance of the rebel MLAs.
00:26There is no internal rebellion. He basically dismissed all the charges
00:30and said that he would look into the issues in detail.
00:33Also dismissing that there is no rift within the party, reiterating Parties United.
00:38Remember it was India Today's exclusive scoop and news break that was confirmed.
00:41We broke it yesterday, exactly 24 hours ago, that there has been a secret huddle earlier,
00:46four meetings since October 27th, cabinet reshuffle and then the plan to meet Farouk Abdullah.
00:52The demand is to remove the ministers who have completed two years,
00:56and that their performance has not been good enough
00:59and that Omar Abdullah either meet their residence or face consequences.
01:04So what triggered the reward?
01:06We were October 27th, there was a cabinet expansion in Jammu Kashmir.
01:10Four new ministers were inducted, council strength went to nine.
01:13But senior ministers felt excluded.
01:15A six-time MLA, Mubarak Gula, senior leader, triggered the resentment, was very vocal about it.
01:21And then even, it appeared, repeated humiliation was mentioned by these MLAs
01:27and that soon turned into open dissent.
01:30You would think that the BJP has nothing to do with it, but it has jumped in to clarify.
01:36On the Operation Lotus charge, if it's happening here, I mean, the Raina of the BJP has said,
01:40this is NC's internal rift. It has nothing to do with us.
01:51The national conference in Daru has been dropped.
01:57It's wrong.
01:59It's wrong.
02:00It's wrong.
02:00It's wrong.
02:02It's wrong.

02:55. . . . . .
03:23We have seven questions from national conference.
03:27But there will be some grievances.
03:29There will be some grievances to address.
03:33I don't like that there is a thing that the media is running.
03:39National conference is running.
03:41The national conference will be starting.
03:46The national conference will not return.
03:48We will not return.
03:50Assemblée Resolution Passed is a big deal.
03:56If you have asked me to say that you have a national conference will not return.
04:03People will have an agreement with you.
04:06That is why we are here, people who are here,
04:09we are in trouble with the people who are here.
04:13They will not return.
04:19that he didn't do it, but he didn't want to do it.
04:24If you have a relationship with him, I will say that we always say that this BJP is a
04:31priority which is a nation conference which is trying to do it. And as soon as he
04:35Rahaulah has resigned, he has resigned from his side to his side. And Rahaulah has said that
04:41Rahaulah has said that the program has all of us, all of us, all of us. So my brother,
04:46then why do we ask our question? You can ask the BJP. You can ask the people.
04:50You can ask the people who are looking for. You can ask the people who are looking for.
04:54Then you can tell the people who are looking for.
04:58In the national conference, when some people have been minister and some people who are
05:03probably going to be a minister, it's not going to happen. Because it's a lack of
05:08will be the case of this party.
05:13My friends will work with my work,
05:18and their guests will be the same.
05:23They will also be the same way to get their own practices.
05:29I will find a way to go ahead and move forward.
05:35Look, there are the members of the national conference,
05:39who are members of the parliament.
05:43They have the same feeling and the parliament,
05:48if the parliament did not hurt their government,
05:52they have said their government.
06:17I'm reporting from the location in the morning
06:20was my colleague Mir Fareed tracking the latest from Srinagar.
06:23Fareed, can we say that the matter is settled for now?
06:25Is it only temporary?
06:27And I wonder what was really discussed in that meeting
06:29if you have insights go.
06:33Well, Pooja, for sure.
06:36I mean, the day this internal strike started
06:39in the National Conference,
06:40it was clear that the crucial moment will come
06:43when these MLAs will meet party patron Faruk Abdullah
06:46because everyone thought that
06:47that is going to be the decisive moment
06:49and that's exactly what has happened.
06:51They went, met Faruk Abdullah today
06:54and after that, as both parties came out,
06:57the rebels as well as Faruk Abdullah,
07:00they spoke to the media and said that all is well.
07:03Yes, they have grievances
07:04and the party high command has said
07:05that they will take care of them.
07:07Some immediately means the next few days
07:09and some are long-term issues.
07:11But our sources say that definitely all is not well
07:15within the National Conference.
07:17Now, the crisis may have been averted
07:18due to Faruk Abdullah's intervention right now.
07:22But one thing is clear that the party rebel group,
07:26which is considerable numbers,
07:2920 people have put the party high command on notice.
07:32While they've also said that they'll wait,
07:34they have been assured.
07:35Now, sources who were part of the meeting say that Faruk,
07:39in fact, Umar Abdullah even told these MLAs
07:42that he will not come under pressure
07:44and if they want, he'll resign.
07:46He can even resign after Diwali,
07:48to which these people said that,
07:50no, that is not their target.
07:52What they want is to save the party.
07:54There are people within the party,
07:55especially in the cabinet,
07:57who need to be taken care of.
08:00There needs to be a reshuffle,
08:02specifically naming Deputy Sian Surinder Chodhury
08:05and advisor to the CM, Nasir Aslamwani.
08:07Now, we'll have to wait and see
08:08what are these short-term measures,
08:09whether there'll be a reshuffle,
08:11whether R&B portfolio will be taken away
08:12from the deputy CM
08:13and whether Nasir Aslamwani will be there.
08:16Eventually, you know, what I can say is,
08:17as Farid is telling us,
08:18Dr. Faruk Abdullah is a quintessential politician,
08:22a veteran.
08:22He's been able to at least restrain the MLAs for now.
08:25But this is short-term.
08:26This is temporary.
08:27They will be waiting for those assurances
08:29to be implemented
08:30and we'll see how that goes for Jammu Kashmir.
08:33I have more news coming in, Farid.
08:34Thank you very much.
08:35Thank you very much.
