Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad said all the political leaders of Jammu and Kashmir must be released if the state has to be brought back on the path of development. “If J&K has to progress then all political leaders under detention in Srinagar must be released. Political process must begin in Jammu & Kashmir. Elections must be conducted in J&K, following proper procedure,” said Azad after National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah was released from house arrest on March 13.
