Congress general secretary and leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad on Saturday met NC chief Farooq Abdullah who was released on Friday after spending more than seven months in detention.

“…Democracy can be restored once all the leaders behind bars — either in jails or in guest houses or under particular act — are released. Let every individual of J&K be released from jail. Let the political process start… Let democracy prevail and then we can pick up other fights,” he said.
