The President of the National Conference, Farooq Abdullah, entered Parliament on Saturday to attend the monsoon session after more than a year since Jammu and Kashmir’s special status under article 370 was repealed on 5 August 2019.
After the special status in Jammu and Kashmir was lifted on August 5, 2019, local leaders were placed in pre-trial detention.
During his speech at Lok Sabha on Saturday, Farooq Abdullah urged India to hold talks with another neighboring country, just as he has been holding talks with China to solve problems.
“As if we were talking to China to solve problems, we also need to have talks with the other neighboring country. People die every day, border skirmishes are increasing. We need to find some solution, ”ANI told Farooq Abdullah, deputy of the National Conference, in Lok Sabha.
On internet network restrictions in Jammu and Kashmir, Farooq Abdullah questioned how J&K was supposed to grow if people did not have access to 4G facilities while the rest of the country did.
“No progress is taking place in Jammu and Kashmir. People there do not have access to the 4G facility, how are they going to grow at the present time when the rest of the country has access to all the facilities on the Internet ”, he said, quoted by ANI.
