J&K: Lone AAP MLA Mehraj Malik Withdraws Support From Omar Abdullah-Led NC Government - The Statesman
- Mehraj Malik, the sole AAP legislator from Doda, announced on the evening of June 14, 2025, that he is pulling his backing from the National Conference government headed by Omar Abdullah.
- Malik made this sudden decision citing the best interest of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, as he had earlier hinted on social media about taking a big decision.
- Malik won the Doda seat last year by 4,538 votes, was appointed AAP state president in March, and posted his withdrawal statement on X highlighting trust and welfare of his people as priorities.
- Despite Malik's exit, the National Conference-Congress alliance maintains a majority with 52 MLAs in the 90-member assembly, making Malik's withdrawal unlikely to affect government stability.
- Malik's move signals political realignment within J&K, though the NC-led government remains secure, while Malik faces ongoing controversies including legal cases and FIRs this year.
