Srinagar: National Conference (NC) President Farooq Abdullah offered Friday prayers at Dargah Hazratbal and prayed for peace and prosperity of Jammu and Kashmir.

A statement of NC issued here said that the party president prayed for everlasting peace and prosperity in the region and supplicated for the return of healthier times and other bountiful provisions from the Almighty Allah.
