PM Modi ‘only hope’ to end 70-year-old Kashmir issue says Mufti

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Saturday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the only hope to address the 70-year-old Kashmir issue once and for all.

Mufti came out in strong support of Prime Minister Modi saying he alone can help the people of the state in these troubling circumstances. Speaking at the inauguration of a much-awaited flyover in Jammu, the chief minister said, “If anyone can take us out of this quagmire, then it is Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He has the mandate. Whatever he decides, the nation will support him.”

Reiterating her stand of initiating the dialogue process to restore peace in Kashmir, Mufti said, “The previous prime minister also wanted to visit Pakistan, but could not. Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Lahore is a proof of his abilities, an example of his moral authority.”
