Dr. Farooq Abdullah bats for dialogue between India & Pakistan

Srinagar, Dec 26  : National Conference President Dr. Farooq Abdullah Tuesday urged India and Pakistan to get connected to each other through dialogue and resolve disputes that costs lives of innocent people in Jammu and Kashmir.
 
Talking to reporters here, Dr. Farooq said dialogue is the only way forward to resolve lingering issues. He said if India and Pakistan do not realise the situation and take imperative measures for peace building then the day is not far when J&K will become a place like Gaza and Palestine.
 
He recalled Late Vajpayee’s mantra that friends can be changed but neighbors can’t, and urged both nations to come forward for confabulation to resolve issues. “”Late Vajpayee had said that friends can be changed but not neighbors. If we maintain good relations with our neighbors only then we can move forward. Even PM Modi had said that war is not an option. So today if voices of dialogue come from Pakistan today, why we are not responding to them. If we will not resolve our issues through dialogue, God forbid the day is not far when our situation will be like Gaza and Palestine,” Dr. Farooq Abdullah as per KNS said.
 
He said if we maintain good relations with our neighbors both India and Pakistan will prosper. 
 
He added that Nawaz Sharif is about to become the PM (of Pakistan) and they are saying that we are ready to talk (with India), but what is the reason why we are not ready to talk? If we do not find a solution through dialogue, we will meet the same fate as Gaza and Palestine. (KNS)
