In a significant diplomatic interaction, Jammu and Kashmir's Agriculture Minister Javid Ahmed Dar visited Himachal Pradesh's Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on Saturday. According to an official statement, the visit was a courtesy call aimed at strengthening interstate relations amidst a tense backdrop.

Acknowledging the recent Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed 26 lives, Minister Dar urged increased security for Kashmiri residents in Himachal Pradesh.
