Former Chief Minister and People’s Democratic Party president Mehbooba Mufti on Thursday said the route for India to become a ‘Vishwa Guru’ is through J&K and SAARC, by initiating a dialogue with neighbours, including Pakistan.
“The route to become a ‘Vishwa Guru’ is not G-7, G-20 or Quad but the SAARC platform. If you (Prime Minister Narendra Modi) could not become a ‘guru’ of your neighbours like Bhutan, Nepal etc., how would one think of India becoming a ‘Vishwa Guru’?” Ms. Mufti, who was speaking on the party’s 23rd foundation day in Srinagar, asked.
