  An energy independent scaling of the near-side ridge yield at a given
multiplicity has been observed by the ATLAS and the CMS collaborations in p+p
collisions at s = 7 and 13 TeV. Such a striking feature of the data can be
successfully explained by approaches based on initial state momentum space
correlation generated due to gluon saturation. In this paper, we try to examine
if such a scaling is also an inherent feature of the approaches that employ
strong final state interaction in p+p collisions. We find that hydrodynamical
modeling of p+p collisions using EPOS 3 shows a violation of such scaling. The
current study can, therefore, provide important new insights on the origin of
long range azimuthal correlations in high multiplicity p+p collisions at the
LHC energies.
