Omar asks Pak to take steps to stop infiltration

Jammu, April 06: Noting that better Indo-Pak ties are necessary in the larger interest of people in Jammu and Kashmir, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today asked Islamabad to to take steps to stop infiltration from across the border.

Omar said his government will continue to work to improve relations between the two neighbours.

“Conflicts never yield positive results but only add to human miseries and make the situation complex. The people in general and those living on borders have to bear the brunt of the conflicts,” he told a gathering at the border village of Marh, about 30 kms from here.

The chief minister asked Pakistan to take measures to “stop infiltration from across the border and help in improvement of ties”.
