Start of India-Pak friendly relation will resolve Kashmir issue on its own: Farooq Abdullah

Srinagar | Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and National Conference chief Farooq Abdullah on Sunday claimed the beginning of friendly relations between India and Pakistan will automatically resolve the Kashmir issue on its own.

Speaking to reporters, Abdullah said,” I believe friendship between the 2 nations is most important for this state. The day friendly relations begin between the 2 nations, Kashmir issue will be resolved on its own.” He further added that the National Conference stands for all those paths which lead to Indo-Pak friendship.

Speaking on the reports of an alliance between National Conference, PDP and Congress for forming the government in Jammu and Kashmir, Abdullah said,”We didn’t want to form the government because we wanted to enjoy power, we wanted to protect all that which the Governor is doing now. We wanted to defend 35A, this govt was not going to sustain for long, it had to topple one day & elections had to be done.”

He further added that we were never hungry for power. PDP, NC&Congress have different paths but we came together. “Why? You see what condition J&K bank is in today. It would never have been the case had our government been there,” he added.
