In that eventuality, the Congress alone would get the chance of a bigger presence in the ministerial team.
The induction of G.M. Saroori, the Congress legislator from Inderwal constituency in the Jammu region, is reportedly being pushed by Azad.
Saroori had to resign from the cabinet in 2010 following allegations that his daughter used a proxy to write her entrance examination for a medical course.
In 2012, a CBI probe exonerated Saroori from the charge.
Another Congress contender for a ministerial berth is Ghulam Ahmad Mir, a legislator from south Kashmir's Dooru constituency.
