After 10 years, Jammu and Kashmir, which was made a Union Territory following the abrogation of Article 370, held Assembly elections. The J&K National Conference won 42 seats, a clean majority. The BJP faced a challenging outcome in the Kashmir Valley, where all 19 of its candidates were unsuccessful, with many losing their deposits. This result reflects the party’s persistent struggle to gain traction and support in the region.

Kulgam, located in the southernmost part of Kashmir, India, is renowned for its scenic beauty, featuring lush green forests and Kashmir’s only major waterfall. This district is distinctive not only for its natural landscape but also for the harmonious coexistence of diverse religious and political communities. It stands out as one of the few regions where communists, particularly the CPI(M), have not only garnered substantial support but have also maintained a significant presence over time.
