Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Monday called for holding talks with Pakistan to end the bloodshed in the militancy-hit state. "Dialogue with Pakistan is necessary if we are to end bloodshed (in the state)," Mehbooba Mufti said in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly. However, the PDP leader was quick to add that she will be dubbed "anti-national" by TV channels for making such an appeal. The appeal from the J&K CM comes amid a spurt in terror attacks across the state as well as unending border clashes between Indian and Pakistani militaries.
