TELANGANA (Dunya News) - The All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday questioned the claims of Indian government over return of normalcy in the occupied Kashmir after Indian Supreme Court allowed Congress leader former chief minister Ghulam Nabi Azad to visit the valley.

According to an Indian news agency, Owaisi asked, “Why politics is not allowed in occupied Kashmir if the situation is normal?” He continued asking, “Why does a former CM of the valley need to seek permission from Indian SC to travel to Kashmir?” He asserted that it shows there is no normalcy in Kashmir.

Ghulam Azad has also expressed earlier that New Delhi’s move to abrogate Article 370 is unconstitutional. Indian SC allowed Congress leader to visit Kashmir but denied them of holding any political rally.
