Ruhullah quits NC and Lok Sabha, tells Budgam crowd 'this is my azaadi'

Srinagar MP Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi resigned from the Lok Sabha and from the National Conference on Tuesday, accusing the party leadership, particularly Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, of betraying its promise to fight for the restoration of Jammu and Kashmir's special status. He announced the decision at a rally in Budgam. The BJP said it had no role in the party's internal rift.
