Ruling National Conference president and former chief minister of J&K said there is no other option than dialogue for all stakeholders. “War has never been a solution, and it will never be. So I, on behalf of our people, congratulate these countries (the US and Iran) and hope they will sit and talk. I pray to God that they talk peace as this war affected the entire world,” said Abdullah. Abdullah refused to credit any country for brokering the ceasefire, saying it was God’s doing. “I will not give credit to any country. God created a way and they are trying to tread that path.”

“Our (India’s) first step in this case was not good…We can move forward through friendship, and animosity will take us backwards. I will also tell Pakistan that the time has come for it to let go of terrorism and take the path of prosperity and brotherhood. There is no other way,” he added.
NC Lok Sabha member Aga Ruhullah retweeted Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s statement on X stating that not too long ago, these statements would most likely come from the Indian Prime Minister in this kind of situation involving the region.
“Unfortunately, BJP’s Muslim hate policy has not only damaged our domestic political and social fabric, it has damaged India’s position and policies in the regional and global political sphere,” said Ruhullah adding, “Pakistan’s efforts to negotiate a ceasefire in a conflict which could potentially escalate into a catastrophe for the region and the world is appreciated.”
People’s Democratic Party chief said Iran remained steadfast against the US and Israel and forced them to start a dialogue process. “Even in these desperate times, Iran didn’t loose its cool and only targeted military installations…this is a big day for Muslim Ummah and Pakistan’s role cannot be ignored as they brought back the whole world from the brink of war… We hope that this ceasefire will be permanent and Iran will get a chance to prosper,” said Mufti adding, “I hope that India and Pakistan will also sit on the table soon and resolve all the issues.”
