In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah has mocked Indian Minister Jitendra Singh’s remarks on Azad Kashmir and said that nothing can be achieved through threats. He advised India and Pakistan to hold talks for peace in Jammu and Kashmir.
Farooq Abdullah’s remarks come a day after Ji-tendra Singh said retrieving Azad Kashmir is next on the agenda.
Singh at a programme in New Delhi had said the leadership which has the capacity and the will to abrogate Article 370 also has the capacity to retrieve Azad Kashmir from the “illegal occupa-tion” of Pakistan.
Talking to reporters in Jammu Farooq Abdullah said, ”I have been repeatedly saying that India and Pakistan have to talk for peace in Jammu and Kashmir. Threats are being held that we will take this thing or that which cannot solve the issue.”—KMS
