Farooq Abdullah Demands Probe and Statehood Restoration After Jammu and Kashmir Attacks
Following two recent militant attacks in Jammu and Kashmir that killed two migrant labourers and a policeman, National Conference president Farooq Abdullah demanded an impartial probe and the public disclosure of the attackers' identities. He questioned the security situation and the claim that terrorism has ended since the 2019 abrogation of Article 370. Abdullah also called for the restoration of Jammu and Kashmir's statehood and criticized the BJP for undermining the region. The Peoples Democratic Party and BJP criticized Abdullah for politicizing the attacks, while authorities increased security for migrant workers amid rising concerns.
