Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh will visit Jammu and Kashmir today to hold talks with Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti and Governor NN Vohra.

Rajnath will be in Kashmir from September 9-11. He will meet all the stakeholders and also hold a press conference.

In his three-day visit, the Home Minister is scheduled to hold talks with the officials of the state and discuss the current situation.

The home minister will also discuss the roadmap to ensure long term solutions to the problems people are facing in the valley.

The Jammu and Kashmir chief minister, last month, met Rajnath, reportedly, to drum up support for preventing attempts to remove special status to the state under the Constitution.
