'Outrage when J&K leaders urge talks, not when RSS does': Omar Abdullah backs call for India-Pakistan dialogue

Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah has endorsed calls for dialogue between India and Pakistan, following a letter from 117 eminent citizens urging renewed talks. Abdullah highlighted the long-standing tension and questioned why similar appeals from regional leaders face criticism, while those from RSS figures are accepted. Former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti also welcomed the RSS leadership's stance, emphasizing the need for improved neighborly relations.
