SRINAGAR, Apr 17: The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference President Dr Farooq Abdullah Friday made an appeal to the Government of India urging due consideration for permitting incarcerated MP Er. Rashid to attend to his ailing father on compelling humanitarian grounds.

Voicing profound concern over the precarious health condition of Er. Rashid's father, Dr Farooq observed that permitting the MP to be at his father's bedside would be a humane and just course of action, consonant with the principles of dignity and empathy.
Dr. Farooq further urged the concerned authorities to adopt a considerate and magnanimous approach, noting that decisions grounded in humanitarian considerations serve to uphold the highest ideals of justice and moral responsibility. He expressed hope that the government of India would respond positively and take expeditious steps to facilitate the necessary arrangements.
He also conveyed his sincere prayers for the swift and complete recovery of the ailing father of the honourable Member of Parliament.
