Farooq Abdullah on Tuesday described the Pahalgam terror attack as a major setback for Jammu and Kashmir, as he paid tributes to those who lost their lives in the incident last year.
Speaking to reporters in Bijbehara, Abdullah said he wished to honour the victims, particularly those who stood up against terrorism.
Commenting on the proposed second round of US-Iran talks, he expressed optimism that continued dialogue would eventually lead to peace. “Many rounds are likely to take place, but peace will prevail. There is no alternative to peace. The world can only be saved through peace,” he said.
On the Women Reservation Bill, Abdullah clarified that his party is not opposed to reservation. He noted that when the legislation was introduced in 2023, it was passed with majority support, underscoring the party’s consistent stand on women’s representation.
