Srinagar, November 18

National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah has resigned from his post on Friday.

The new president will be elected on December 5.

The resignation comes a day after a man here heckled Abdullah and questioned his inability to restore Article 370 which was abrogated by the Centre in 2019.

According to a statement issued by the National Conference, Abdullah had informed his colleagues about his decision to resign as the president of the JKNC.

Meanwhile, the NC general secretary has been tasked with conducting the election for the party president.

Until then, Abdullah will continue as the president of the NC.
