Srinagar, July 22

Calling the terror attacks taking place in the Jammu region “sad,” National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah on Monday said that few people in both countries don’t want “peace.”

“The sad thing is that, in both these countries, there are few people who don’t want peace. We want peace. You can see how many forces are coming in, almost 7,000 more personnel are brought here in the mountainous region. The government of India will not be ready (to have talks with Pakistan); it’s not ready until terrorism ends; no matter how much we shout, they won’t be ready,” Abdullah said, amid a spate of terror attacks in the Jammu region.

In the last few months, there has been a spike in terror attacks in the Jammu region.
