Congress, allies sabotaged Jammu’s national projects: Dr Jitendra Singh
The minister further alleged that the Congress also denied 4% reservation to the people living along the International Border in this region.
Reacting to India calling off the meeting between the Foreign Ministers of India and Pakistan, former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti has said that calling off the meeting between Sushma Swaraj and her Pakistani counterpart Sheikh Mehmood Qureshi in New York is a bad news for the state.
India had called off the meeting following the release of a series of ‘commemorative’ stamps on slain Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist Burhan Wani and terming him as a ‘freedom fighter’ by Pakistani authorities.
On Friday morning, the bodies of three J&K policemen, who were abducted by militants late on Thursday from Shopian district, were recovered from Kapran village in South Kashmir’s Shopian district.

A few days back, a Border Security Force (BSF) jawan was killed along the Jammu border after he and his team came under unprovoked firing from Pakistan. His bullet-riddled body with throat slit was recovered by the BSF.
Calling off meeting between India & Pak’s FMs is bad news for J&K. Both countries owe it to people of state & country to carry on dialogue rather than talking through media. Inspite of a historic mandate, it is media & not NDA leadership that is setting the agenda.
