Centre’s Kashmir outreach: Union Ministers spread positivity

Minority Affairs Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi became the first Union Minister to visit the Kashmir valley as part of the Centre’s outreach programme following the August 5 decision to end J&K’s autonomous status.

“It is the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi that J&K too joins the development trajectory of the country. It was the termite of corruption that destroyed this paradise, with people only pursuing their personal gains. For decades, aspirations of locals have been ignored. However, the Centre is for positive and effective change on the ground,” said Mr. Naqvi.
