SRINAGAR: National Conference President Farooq Abdullah today said the Kashmir issue is “political” and delay in its resolution would only deteriorate the situation further.
“Kashmir is a political issue and needs to be resolved on first priority so that people in the State can live in peace. As long as its resolution is delayed, the situation is bound to deteriorate further instead of getting back on track,” the former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister said interacting with party workers and delegations from various parts of the State here.
Abdullah, a Lok Sabha MP, also blamed the “wrong policies” of the Centre and the State Government for the prevailing uncertainty in the hinterland and along the borders in J-K. (AGENCIES)
