DYNASTY POLITICS: THE NEXT GENERATION ALREADY IN WAITING?
The reported possibility of Zamir Abdullah, son of Omar Abdullah, moving to Tangmarg has triggered fresh speculation about his entry into active politics.
With Beerwah and Tangmarg being discussed as possible constituencies, the focus has once again shifted to political succession within the National Conference.
At a time when the party is facing internal dissent, the bigger question is whether leadership in Kashmir's political families is increasingly becoming a matter of inheritance rather than political merit.
In Kashmir, dynasty politics seems to have no retirement age, only the next generation waiting in the wings. 🍁
