When NC remained adamant about offering us the fourth seat, which was considered unsafe, we convened a core committee meeting. It was unanimously decided that we should not contest an election we are likely to lose. The committee also expressed resentment over the backtracking of commitments made at the level of Sonia Ji and Kharge Ji,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the NC leadership conveyed that anything beyond fourth seat was non-negotiable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Mir Sahab and I sent a joint letter to Omar Sahab, he directed us to speak with Farooq Sahib. Farooq Sahib\u2019s response was self-explanatory-he told us they were only willing to discuss the fourth seat,\u201d Karra said.<\/p>\n<p>When asked whether NC had betrayed Congress, Karra responded, \u201cI wouldn\u2019t use the word betrayal. But our trust has been broken.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further said that NC\u2019s actions indicate it may be reconsidering its relationship with the INDIA bloc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not that the understanding with NC in J&amp;K has been unfulfilled. But it also suggests that NC may be evaluating whether to remain in the INDIA bloc,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>On Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma\u2019s remark that Congress is a puppet of NC in Jammu &amp; Kashmir, Karra declined to comment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would not react to irresponsible statements made by BJP,\u201d he said.
