Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) President Dr. Farooq Abdullah has reiterated his party’s unwavering commitment to the promises outlined in its manifesto. Addressing recent criticism from opposition parties and a statement by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge regarding Article 370, Dr. Abdullah remarked, “What we had said is clear, and we are following it. We stand by it. If they [the Opposition] don’t say anything, how will they survive?”
Dr. Abdullah’s statement comes amidst a political war of words in Jammu and Kashmir, where the restoration of Article 370 remains a contentious issue. The former chief minister emphasized his party’s focus on delivering what it had pledged to the people, urging critics to assess the NC’s performance based on its actions.
The Opposition’s remarks, including those by Kharge, have sparked debate over the region’s future and governance. While some parties accuse the JKNC of not doing enough, Dr. Abdullah’s response underlines the political rivalry shaping the discourse in the Union Territory.
