If public anger in Kashmir Valley over government’s absence from the scene of the catastrophe is any indication, Omar Abdullah’s party the National Conference may have just scripted its own eclipse from the political scene in the floods that have left a trail of death, destruction and chaos across Kashmir.

"The last favour Omar Abdullah can do to the people is to get out of the scene," said Nayeem Akhtar, spokesperson of the opposition Peoples’ Democratic Front, the main challenger of the National Conference in state elections which are due in two months. Nayeem, like thousands of Srinagar residents was caught in floods and did not receive any support from the state government.

As such the government offices have faced massive damage and destruction to vital documents, records and even the furniture for the employees to work. "We have no idea how to disburse salaries as all the records are lost," said a middle run officer working in Srinagar district magistrate’s office.
