Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday expressed disappointment over the recent criticism of his party’s resolution in the Legislative Assembly, stating that those who had previously congratulated and supported him for bringing Article 370 resulation had now started accusing the National Conference (NC) of compromising.
In an address to the assembly, Abdullah said that bringing any resolution that would never be accepted in Parliament was foolish. He stated that such resolutions should instead force Parliament to reconsider the issue.
He described the move as “foolishness,” suggesting that it would ultimately cost the state nothing while failing to address the real concerns of the people.
Referring to the growing controversy surrounding the resolution, Abdullah urged young political leaders to be cautious of the influence of social media platforms, especially WhatsApp and Facebook.He advised them not to let these platforms set the agenda for their political parties, stressing that their focus should remain on substantive issues rather than online rhetoric.
Despite the criticism, Abdullah insisted that the resolution had ignited important conversations among the people of Jammu and Kashmir. “This resolution has brought life to the people of Jammu and Kashmir, who are now speaking,” he stated, suggesting that it had succeeded in stimulating public discourse on key political issues.
