Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said on Wednesday that Kashmir is not an internal issue of India but a political issue between India and Pakistan.

"Kashmir is not an internal issue of India. It (Kashmir) is a political issue between the two countries and unless the two nations sit and talk to resolve it, it would continue to remain an issue," Omar said addressing a rally on the anniversary of his grandmother.

Omar said Jammu and Kashmir is not about development and money. "The issue has not cropped up due to lack of money but it has been always a political issue," he said, adding "I have also informed the prime minister that Kashmir issue is not an issue of money and development."

About ongoing talks between India and Pakistan, the Chief Minister said the talks should be result oriented. "If talks are held for the sake of talks then they are of no use whether they are held in Tokyo or Islamabad," Omar said.

The Chief Minister said both the countries should start confidence building measures by resolving issues like Siachen and Sir Creek. "Jammu and Kashmir should be also allowed to construct Tubul barrage," Omar said.
