Farooq Abdullah criticises BJP regime in UP for changing names of places

IIOJK: National Conference President Farooq Abdullah has said that an improvement in the Pakistan-India ties will be better for occupied Jammu and Kashmir.

Farooq Abdullah talking to reporters in Jammu, while replying to a question on External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar’s remarks on Azad Jammu and Kashmir, said, “If relations between the two countries improve, it is a good thing for us.”

Speaking at a session at the Chatham House think tank in London on Wednesday, Jaishankar said the Kashmir dispute would be solved after the “return of the stolen part” that is under “illegal Pakistani occupation.”

Farooq Abdullah criticised the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) regime in Uttar Pradesh for changing names of places and said this would not erase Mughal history.
