Senior Abdullah while talking to media persons said that militancy has not come to an end in J&K.
“We cannot achieve peace without holding talks. Fighting with enemies can only lead to destruction and Ukraine is the perfect example of it,” he said.
He added that the talks must be held between India and Pakistan, he said, adding that if the militancy according to the government has reduced then how such incidents are taking place.
“These incidents will continue to take place until and unless the talks are held between the two nations. We are living in a fool’s paradise if we think that the situation will change without the talks. Therefore, both the governments should sit on a table to discuss the issues,” he said.
