We are waiting to see the follow up from the meeting with the PM, says Omar Abdullah

We are waiting to see the follow up from the meeting with the PM, says Omar Abdullah

There is a contradiction between what the MoS Home tells Parliament and what the L-G says here. says former chief minister Omar Abdullah

More than a month after the much-hyped all-party meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and leaders of political parties from J&K, National Conference vice-president and former chief minister Omar Abdullah expressed disappointment at its outcome, lack of follow up and the exclusion of Members of Parliament from the recent visit of Delimitation Commission to J&K. The meeting was a first step. It was also important that the first step was taken by New Delhi because they were the ones who were instrumental with regard to the August 5, 2019 move and all the detentions thereafter, particularly of the mainstream leaders. So, the onus was on them to take the first step. But no meeting is successful without any follow-up. So, we are waiting to see what the follow up is from the meeting that took place with regard to addressing the issues that was brought before PM Modi. All we want to see is how the PM and his government plan to move forward on the words, ‘dilli saey doori aur dil ki doori’, where the PM himself acknowledged these gaps. We are waiting to see what is going to be done to reduce these gaps. There were specific demands made, some political and some administrative in nature. There were various people who put demands before the PM. I haven't seen any evidence of any of them being met so far.
