BJP Wants to Get it Right But Which Way Will Mehbooba Swing?

The Quint  

BJP president Amit Shah is sending Ram Madhav to Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday, to try and re-stitch the alliance with Peoples Democratic Party chief Mehbooba Mufti. A mini-crisis has been brewing in the state since Mehbooba’s father, the sitting chief minister Mufti Mohd Sayeed, passed away on 7 January. There is no doubt why Mehbooba hasn’t rushed to become CM – though everyone, even her rival Omar Abdullah of the National Conference – has been telling her to do so. She’s got herself into a bit of a cul-de-sac, which would make any input from the IB more valuable to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and National Security Advisor Ajit Doval.
