National Conference Suffers Major Jolt as Around 100 Workers Join JKNPF at Hazratbal Srinagar: In a significant political development, the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (NC) faced a major setback after around 100 of its workers formally joined the Jammu and Kashmir Nationalist People’s Front (JKNPF) during a massive joining programme held at Gosoo Dargah, Hazratbal. The event witnessed enthusiastic participation from locals and party supporters. The new entrants were warmly welcomed into the party fold by JKNPF President Jasif Khan, Vice President Basit Bashir, Vice President Tanvir Geelani, and Youth President Shiraz Pandith. The leadership described the mass joining as a clear indication of the growing public trust and confidence in JKNPF’s vision and leadership. Addressing the gathering, Jasif Khan said that the continuous joining of workers from other parties reflects the people’s disappointment with traditional political forces and their desire for transparent, accountable governance. He assured the people that JKNPF remains committed to addressing grassroots issues and strengthening public welfare mechanisms. During an interaction session, local residents voiced serious grievances regarding civic problems and alleged political neglect. They claimed that despite repeated promises made during elections, many developmental commitments remain unfulfilled. Residents pointed out that their constituency is currently represented by MLA Salman Sagar, but alleged that he has not visited the area even once since the formation of the government. Locals expressed hope that JKNPF would bring responsive leadership and prioritize people-centric governance. The party leadership reiterated its commitment to working at the grassroots level and ensuring that public representatives remain accessible and accountable to the people. The massive joining programme at Hazratbal is being seen as a political boost for JKNPF ahead of upcoming political developments in the region.
