Referring to the two ongoing anti-militancy operations in J&K, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Monday called for immediate dialogue between India and Pakistan.
“A dialogue with Pakistan is necessary if we are to end the bloodshed. I know I will be labelled anti-national by news anchors tonight but that doesn’t matter. The people of J&K are suffering. We have to talk because war is not an option,” she said.
She said there were security forces personnel who were killed in Jammu's Sunjwan and Srinagar's Kara Nagar areas. “If a fidayeen comes to die and kill, there is no foolproof security against such a person. I am not for people dying on borders or elsewhere. We have to engage Pakistan,” she added.
