J&K Youths Taking To Drugs Due To Unemployment, Frustration: Farooq Abdullah

Youths are sinking under the weight of the incumbent administration's "indifference", said Srinagar MP and National Conference chief Farooq Abdullah.

National Conference president Farooq Abdullah today accused the Jammu and Kashmir administration of being indifferent to the plight of the youths of the Union Territory, who, he claimed, were turning to drugs out of joblessness and ensuing frustration.

The NC president, who is also the Srinagar MP, made the allegation while interacting with party workers who had called on him at his residence here.

The visiting delegation apprised the party president of various issues concerning the people, particularly youths.

"The J&K youths are sinking under the weight of the incumbent administration's indifference," said Mr Abdullah.
