Jammu: National Conference President and former Chief Minister Dr. Farooq Abdullah has praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar for ensuring the safe return of Kashmiri students stranded in Iran. He called their efforts commendable and significant.
Speaking briefly to reporters in Jammu today, Dr. Abdullah expressed concern over the escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, describing the situation as alarming. “War never brings any real gain. It only leads to destruction. Dialogue and reconciliation are the only ways to resolve conflicts. War is neither good for humanity nor for humankind,” he said.
Commenting further on the geopolitical situation, he added, “The impact of war is always devastating. No conflict benefits mankind. What can be achieved through talks cannot be achieved through war. Fight as much as you want—destruction will be inevitable for both sides.”
Referring to the rescue of Kashmiri students from Iran, Dr. Abdullah said, “What the Prime Minister and Mr. Jaishankar have done is a great and commendable task. They have brought back many, and I am confident those still left behind will also be brought home safely.”
