Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday attacked the "three families" of Jammu and Kashmir politics amid the ongoing assembly elections. In a veiled dig at the Abdullahs, the Muftis, and the Gandhis, PM Modi said that the three families used to snatch the rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the main city in Himalayan Kashmir on Thursday to campaign for his party in the local election, the first such vote since New Delhi stripped the disputed region’s semi-autonomy in 2019.

Voters queued outside polling stations in India's Jammu and Kashmir on Wednesday to vote in the first provincial election being held in a decade in the Himalayan region that has grappled with years of militant violence.
