CONGRESS FACES SEAT-SHARING HURDLE IN KASHMIR

The Congress party is engaged in intense negotiations over seat allocation in Kashmir Valley, which has 47 assembly seats. In Jammu, the National Conference (NC) has agreed to a minor role, allowing Congress to contest approximately 30 seats. Jammu, with 43 assembly seats, and Kashmir together comprise a total of 90 seats across the Union Territory.

Sources indicate that Congress has earmarked about a dozen seats in Kashmir, aiming to secure as many as possible to satisfy local leadership. A Congress leader remarked, “If we don’t contest enough seats, many Congress leaders in the valley will become demotivated. To keep the cadre’s ambitions alive, we need at least a dozen seats.”
