India-Maldives row: “India trying to resolve matters by dialogue…” Farooq Abdullah

Amid the India-Maldives row, Jammu and Kashmir National Conference President Farooq Abdullah on January 09 shared his doubt that this ongoing tension between both countries is due to Hindu, and Muslim hatred in India. He said that India is trying to resolve the matter by dialogue. Farooq Abdullah said, “India has always helped the Maldives... I don’t understand what is the reason behind this controversy today. Is it because of the hatred rising between Hindus and Muslims in India?... China’s influence is increasing not only there but also in Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh...India is trying to resolve the matters by dialogue.”
