Seeks a political approach towards Kashmir
New Delhi: National Conference President and Member of Parliament from Srinagar Dr. Farooq Abdullah on Tuesday called on the Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi.
He apprised Modi of the situation in the Valley and urged him to address the issue politically.
During a meeting that lasted over half-an-hour, Abdullah, who was recently elected to the Lok Sabha from the Srinagar seat, briefed the prime minister on the growing unrest in the Valley.
This is the first meeting Abdullah had with Modi after being elected to Parliament in Srinagar by-poll elections. The seat had fallen vacant after Tariq Karra had resigned from the ruling PDP.
Abdullah urged the prime minister to take urgent steps to address the Kashmir issue politically, saying it was not a mere law and order problem.
