'INDIA Bloc On Life Support': Omar Abdullah Exposes Cracks In Opposition Alliance

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has exposed cracks within the INDIA bloc, blaming the alliance for driving seasoned politician Nitish Kumar to the BJP-led NDA—a switch that left the opposition weakened in Bihar. The BJP said that Abdullah's remarks served as a "reality check," but the opposition will still ignore the wake-up call.

"I believe that we pushed Nitish Kumar back into the arms of the NDA," Abdullah said at the HT Leadership Summit today, referring to the Bihar Chief Minister's efforts towards building the INDIA bloc in 2023 with an eye on the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
