Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Sambit Patra slammed National Conference chairperson Farooq Abdullah for his statement to a news channel that he hoped that Article 370 will be restored in Jammu and Kashmir with China's help, hitting back with a sedition charge on him. "On September 24, Farooq Abdullah said that if you go to Jammu and Kashmir and ask people if they are Indians, then people will say that we are not Indians. In the same statement, he also said that it would be good if we could join China," Patra said in a press conference.
