Azad visits hospital to meet people injured in Pak firing

JAMMU, Oct 7: Congress leader Gulam Nabi Azad today visited the government hospital here to meet those injured in shelling by Pakistan’s troops from across the Line of Control in the Jammu region.
Azad interacted with the injured and assured them of full medical support from the state government.
Hitting out at the Central government for “failing” to respond adequately and effectively to ceasefire violations by Pakistan, Azad had yesterday said that it has emboldened the neighbouring country to perpetuate tension in the border areas.
“It seems that Pakistan is taking the new government non-seriously and is hell bent on creating tension in border areas of Jammu and Kashmir”, Azad had said. (Agencies)
