In a scenario of political defections, the litmus test for Farooq Abdullah headed Peoples’ Alliance For Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) is it’s unity till the accomplishment of it’s agenda revolving around the restoration of the position of erstwhile Jammu & Kashmir state as it existed on August 5 morning ,2019 when it was bifurcated into two union and it’s special status under article 370 and article 35 A was scrapped. Leaders quitting any of the constituent parties of the Peoples’ Alliance For Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) as being speculated in media reports and claimed by the critics of the alliance won’t matter for the reason that people in the recently concluded DDC elections have voted for the agenda of the alliance but not for the parties who are part of the alliance. Any constituent party quitting alliance would mean it’s deviation from the agenda of the alliance and people won’t take even a second to change their opinion about any party quitting Peoples’ Alliance For Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) just for tending to show loyalty to the incumbent political regime in Delhi. The irrefutable fact is that people of Jammu & Kashmir have noted down seriously the recent remarks of National Conference Vice President Omar Abdullah in an interview to a famed TV anchor of international repute Karan Thapar about his own survival in J&K’s mainstream politics and also the allegations of the Peoples’ Conference General Secretary Imran Ansari over the violation of the alliance norms by PAGD constituent parties in the recently held DDC elections in Jammu & Kashmir. Let Omar Abdullah, the Vice President of National Conference and a former Chief Minister of erstwhile Jammu & Kashmir have no doubts over the public perception over his own future in politics and let him note it down just today for future that people of Jammu & Kashmir are only concerned about the commitment of the National Conference to the agenda of the Peoples Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD ) and it’s unity but not his personal survival in the mainstream politics of Jammu & Kashmir.

Let both Omar and Ansari don’t show any tendency to disown the alliance or it’s agenda as any such attempt by either National Conference or Peoples Conference would be a betrayal million times bigger than the August 5, 2019 moves of the incumbent central government over erstwhile Jammu & Kashmir state. The people of Jammu & Kashmir have in their verdict in the recently held DDC elections delivered a message to constituent parties of the PAGD( Peoples’ Alliance For Gupkar Declaration) that they won’t side with them in future if they use mandate the recent for pelf and power as per the practices and precedences’ of their contemporaries in the past.

Similarly the Peoples Conference General Secretary Imran Ansari won’t also see people on the side of his party if he or the party he represents chooses to quit PAGD merely for violation of alliance norms by any constituent party in the recently held DDC elections as people in the recently held DDC elections have undoubtedly voted for the PAGD agenda but not for Peoples Conference or PAGD’s any other constituent party. Let both Omar and Ansari don’t show any tendency to disown the alliance or it’s agenda as any such attempt by either National Conference or Peoples Conference would be a betrayal million times bigger than the August 5, 2019 moves of the incumbent central government over erstwhile Jammu & Kashmir state. The people of Jammu & Kashmir have in their verdict in the recently held DDC elections delivered a message to constituent parties of the PAGD( Peoples’ Alliance For Gupkar Declaration) that they won’t side with them in future if they use mandate the recent for pelf and power as per the practices and precedences’ of their contemporaries in the past.
