His remark came hours after Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif&#8217;s &#8220;we have learnt our lesson&#8221; comment. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Dubai-based Al Arabiya TV earlier today, Mr Sharif had called for &#8220;serious and sincere talks&#8221; with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on &#8220;burning points like Kashmir&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have had three wars with India, and they have only brought more misery, poverty, and unemployment to the people&#8230; We have learnt our lesson, and we want to live in peace with India, provided we are able to resolve our genuine problems,&#8221; Shehbaz Sharif said. &#8220;My message to the Indian leadership and Prime Minister Modi is that let&#8217;s sit down on the table and have serious and sincere talks to resolve our burning points like Kashmir,&#8221; he had added.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Abdullah said India needs to find a solution to the issue and he had given the same message of both countries being &#8220;united and of building bridges&#8221;, when former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee sought his opinion before travelling to Pakistan in 1999.<\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Narendra Modi has &#8220;said openly that war is not a solution for anything,&#8221; Mr Abdullah said, remarking that Russia-Ukraine war was a case in point.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;India is a unique country and it is that because we all think together&#8230;we have to return to Gandhi&#8217;s India&#8230; the division has to end if the nation has to progress,&#8221; Mr Abdullah said. &#8220;The country will never be strong unless we are one,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Abdullah also expressed unhappiness at some of the current developments in the country. &#8220;Look at the institutions, Governors, look at the Lt Governor&#8230; how they are playing with the Constitution&#8230; I could never think of this,&#8221; he said at a book release event. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The book, &#8220;A Life in the Shadows A Memoir&#8221;, has been written by former RAW chief AS Dulat, who retired from service in 2000. Mr Dulat also said &#8220;terrorism (in J&amp;K) will not go away unless we engage with Pakistan&#8221;. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He, however, added that he would &#8220;concede&#8221; that the level of militancy has come down due to the &#8220;muscular policy&#8221; adopted by the current dispensation.\u00a0 Militancy is local while terrorism comes from across the border, Mr Dulat said.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about the relation between New Delhi and Kashmir, Mr Dulat said the &#8220;disconnect with the people has always been there and there has been a lack of trust&#8221;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndtv.com\/india-news\/terrorism-will-stay-unless-farooq-abdullah-on-kashmir-3701442\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] &#8220;We have to return to Gandhi&#8217;s India,&#8221; Farooq Abdullah said.
