Union Home Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to visit Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday for the first time after taking charge of the ministry and local political leaders are expecting him to announce talks with separatists.
Shah will reach the state’s summer capital, Srinagar, in the afternoon and stay in the state for two days. He is going to make a detailed security review of the Amarnath Yatra and address a party gathering followed by meetings with the state administration. Most of the mainstream parties in the restive state expect Shah to announce talks to restore normalcy in the region.
