    "articleBody": "A dispute has erupted between the National Conference (NC) and the Congress party in Jammu and Kashmir over the singing of the full version of Vande Mataram. NC leaders, including Omar Abdullah and Farooq Abdullah, stood during the full rendition, deepening the rift with Congress, which opposes the move. The controversy highlights tensions within the INDIA bloc alliance.\n\nThe National Conference honoured the full version of Vande Mataram, with senior leaders Omar Abdullah and Farooq Abdullah standing during its complete rendition. This act has isolated the Congress party among its allies, as it has expressed opposition to singing the entire national song. The disagreement has led to an exchange of barbs between the two parties, reflecting a growing divide within the alliance in Jammu and Kashmir.\nयह भी पढ़ें\nKarnataka government restricts Vande Mataram to two stanzas at official events\nPakistani LeT Commander Yasir Killed in Budgam Encounter\nFormer Congress-BJP Councillors Contest as Independents\nCongress and BJP Face Off in 22 Wards in Kota",
