Farooq Abdullah

Farooq Abdullah's remarks linking terror attacks to the demand for J&K statehood overlook nearly four decades of Pakistan-sponsored terrorism that flourished under Article 370, from the ethnic cleansing of Kashmiri Hindus to major attacks like Uri and Pulwama, raising questions over whether constitutional decisions should ever be influenced by violence.

Pakistan Defence Minister Khwaja Asif said that Pakistan and the Congress-National Conference alliance were on the same page when it came to the restoration of Article 370 in the Union Territory.

The National Conference and the Congress will contest the forthcoming assembly election in Jammu and Kashmir together and have formed an alliance

While hundreds of Kashmiri Pandits were killed by Islamic terrorists during the 1990s, Ruhullah Mehdi has the audacity to dub their killings as mere “Haadsa”. Mehdi kept emphasising as to how concerned he is for the Kashmiri Pandits, however, not once did he talk about Pakistan’s role in the terrorism in Kashmir especially during the 1990s.

The anguish of Article 370's abrogation has yet to subside, and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has rattled the Gupkar gang by advocating for reclaiming Pakistan-occupied Kashmir

Several prominent names, including Samajwadi Party's Dimple Yadav, National Conference’s Farooq Abdullah, and former Maharashtra CM Y B Chavan have also won Lok Sabha elections without a contest. 

Farooq Abdullah claimed, “If we do not find a solution through dialogue, we will meet the same fate as Gaza and Palestine, which are being bombed by Israel.”

The SC verdict on the abrogation of Article 370 has ensured the Gupkar Gang has little relevance in the Valley, which is why its leaders have public outburst in the wake of the top court's ruling.
