India reminds world about challenges posed by climate change
India has reminded the global community how the impact of climate change has increasingly become evident in the form of one disaster or another.
Former J&K Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah, who recently tested positive for COVID-19, was shifted to the Sher-e-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS) in Srinagar on Saturday to better monitor his health.
“Based on the advice of doctors to enable them to better monitor my father, he has been admitted to a hospital in Srinagar. Our family remains grateful to everyone for their messages of support and their prayers”, Omar tweeted.
The senior-most Jammu and Kashmir National Conference leader’s son Omar Abdullah confirmed on Tuesday that the 83-year-old leader has tested positive for Covid-19.

“My father has tested positive for COVID-19 & is showing some symptoms. I will be self-isolating along with other family members until we get ourselves tested. I request anyone who has come into contact with us over the last few days to take all the mandated precautions”, Omar Abdullah tweeted.
