'I Have A Blood Relation With J&K': Rahul Gandhi
While addressing the party workers during a press conference, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi reiterated that the priority of Congress and INDIA bloc is to restore the statehood in Jammu and Kashmir at the earliest.
Expressing his love for the people of Jammu and Kashmir, Rahul Gandhi said that he has a "blood relation" with the Union Territory. He further said that representing the people of the Valley is his top priority and that his "biggest goal is to remove the pain and suffering in the hearts of the people there and get them back their statehood".
Quoting his slogan "Nafrat ke bazaar mei mohabbat ki dukaan", Rahul Gandhi urged the people, particularly the youth of the UT to respond to hatred with love.
जम्मू-कश्मीर के साथ मेरा खून का रिश्ता है - वहां के लोगों के दिलों में जो दुख-दर्द है, उसे मिटा कर उन्हें उनका statehood और representation वापस दिलाना ही मेरा सबसे बड़ा लक्ष्य है। pic.twitter.com/iBFDwwJxn0
