Omar Abdullah Urges Pakistan to Address Human Rights Concerns in PoK Amid Kashmir Dispute
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah responded to Pakistan's criticism of India's 2019 abrogation of Article 370 by urging Pakistan to stop interfering in India's internal affairs. He highlighted alleged human rights violations and recent violence in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), calling for Islamabad to face global scrutiny similar to that demanded during unrest in Indian-administered Kashmir. Abdullah emphasized that while elections in both regions are internal matters, the reported bloodshed and civilian killings in PoK are concerning and should be addressed by Pakistan.
