DWC v. ADWC
Thanks for the advice, given the Democratic Workers Congress (DWC) is the more prominent of the two parties, I felt that it deserved its own independent article and have done so. I'll work up some cited references shortly. I can't find much info on the ADWC however and it probably will remain a stub, unless someone else works on it.

Disambiguation link notification for October 8
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kailash Nath Katju, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Orissa (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
