He also said that India should hold talks with Pakistan for the peace of Jammu and Kashmir.

Mehbooba Mufti after leaving PM Modi's meeting said that the people of J&K are in a lot of trouble after August 5, 2019. They are angry, upset and emotionally broken. They feel humiliated. I told the PM that the way Article 370 was abrogated unconstitutional, illegal and unethical, it is not accepted by the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

He further said that the people of Jammu and Kashmir will fight in a constitutional, democratic, peaceful manner. Month or year, we will restore Article 370 in J&K as it is a matter of our identity. We did not get it from Pakistan, but our country gave it to us, JL Nehru and Sardar Patel gave it.

Mehbooba further said that I congratulated her that she spoke to Pakistan and this led to a ceasefire and reduced infiltration. If they want to talk to Pakistan again for the peace of Jammu and Kashmir, they should. They should also negotiate trade with Pakistan, as trade between the two countries has come to a halt, it is a source of employment for many people.
