The National Conference (NC) on April 25 removed senior party leader Sheikh Ishfaq Jabbar from the basic membership, for “causing indiscipline” within the party in central Kashmir’s Ganderbal district.
“Sheikh Ishfaq Jabbar, ex-MLA, a resident of Ganderbal, has been removed from the basic membership of JKNC for six years, in view of his anti-party activities and causing indiscipline. The order has been issued by the general secretary of the JKNC,” a NC spokesman said.
The move came just hours after NC president Farooq Abdullah and vice president Omar Abdullah visited Ganderbal and addressed the party workers.
