Have J&K floods wash away Omar's chances of coming back to power ?
The armed forces are being appreciated for their heroic act during the relief operation but the State Government is at forefront of the locals. The Omar Abdullah Government is being accused of missing in action from the scene of the tragedy. The development could hamper Omar Abdullah-led NC's hope of repeat mandate in ensuing Assemly polls.
Locals not happy with State Government's role
Undoubtedly, there is widespread anger among the locals over Government's absence from the scene during the floods. The locals say that they were caught in floods for many days but did not receive any support from the State Government. They are infuriated over State Government's role in handling the rescue operations.
Omar Government's six-year term expires on 4 January, 2015.
According
to
reports,
presently,
most
of
the
relief
work
is
being
coordinated
and
monitored
by
a
central
team
of
Union
Home
Ministry.
While,
the
seriousness
on
State
Government's
front
in
handling
the
whole
relief
operation
could
be
accessed
from
the
fact
that
its
control
room
is
lying
disfunctional
in
the
time
of
crisis.
The
State
Government's
control
room
which
is
located
at
Gupkar
Road
does
not
have
a
telephone
connectivity
for
the
people
to
contact
with
officials.
Due
tothe
failed
approach
in
handling
the
rescue
operations,
the
Government
and
its
officials
are
at
butt
of
public
anger.
Sensing
the
same,
the
senior
officials
are
now
moving
in
taxis
instead
of
their
Government
cars
to
avoid
public
wrath.
Has Omar-led NC scripted its defeat?
Instead
of
extending
a
helping
hand
to
the
public,
CM
Omar
Abdullah
and
his
Legislatives
had
literally
gone
into
hiding.
None
of
them
was
seen
into
action
during
the
floods.
This
at
a
time
when
other
political
parties
were
desperately
trying
to
join
the
Army
and
other
agencies
in
their
rescue
operations.
In
order
to
save
himself
from
the
angry
public
mood,
Omar
criticised
Central
Government's
approach
in
handling
the
relief
operations.
He
tried
to
pass
the
responsibility
of
handling
the
aftermath
of
floods
to
Modi
Government.
Such
lackadiscal
approach
of
the
National
Conference
Government
ahead
of
the
Assembly
polls
is
not
a
good
sign
for
the
party.
The
State
will
soon
go
to
polls
as
Omar
Government's
six-year
term
expires
on
4
January,
2015.
Inept handling of floods could be a spoiler to Omar's ambitions
The
NC
formed
Government
with
Congress
support
in
January,
2009,
at
that
time
Omar
was
seen
as
a
ray
of
hope
by
the
youth
to
bring
the
State
out
of
the
quagmire
that
has
dogged
it
since
eruption
of
militancy.
But,
the
Government
getting
flak
for
its
inept
handling
of
floods
could
be
a
spoiler
to
Omar's
ambitions
of
making
a
comeback.
The
party
is
also
facing
a
huge
anti-incumbency.
With
this,
the
rising
of
BJP
and
an
assertive
PDP
could
further
make
the
task
of
Omar
and
National
Confernce
more
difficult
to
make
a
comeback.
