Ghulam Nabi Azad calls Farooq Abdullah's Pakistan-Kashmir claims incorrect and opposes his views.

Respect Farooq Abdullah, But His Kashmir Statement Is "Incorrect": GN Azad

BJP spokesperson Altaf Thakur and DPAP president Ghulam Nabi Azad have strongly criticized National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah's remarks on Pakistan during a party workers convention in Baramulla district on October 24, 2026. The NC chief had referred to Pakistan as "Kashmir's saviour," a statement BJP deemed "sedition and anti-national."

Thakur demanded legal action against Abdullah for questioning India's intentions towards the people of J&K while giving Pakistan a pro-inflammatory role. Azad accused Abdullah of projecting Pakistan as a protector of Kashmiris, disregarding the suffering caused by terrorist activities. Both BJP and DPAP called upon authorities to examine Abdullah's remarks and take necessary legal action.
