SRINAGAR: NC president Farooq Abdullah on Wednesday appreciated Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan for his statement that war was not an option between India and Pakistan, but attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying he was “still speaking the language of a tea-seller”.
Addressing a rally at the Idgah area of the city, Abdullah said the Jammu and Kashmir issue is not a result of lack of development, rather it is “political” in nature, and a dialogue between the two countries was the only way out.
“The issue has held hostage the development of the subcontinent. Our party has all along maintained that a dialogue between the two nations (India and Pakistan) affords a way out,” said Abdullah, who is contesting the Lok Sabha elections from Srinagar. (AGENCIES)
