You can contact me directly through the website and find details about my office. Owing to Covid-19 I am unable to meet at surgeries, and I am now conducting telephone surgeries.

I am concerned about the ongoing situation in Kashmir. I have constituents who have families in Kashmir, Pakistan and India affected by this development. The unilateral decision taken by the Government of India to revoke Article 370 will only serve to increase tensions in the region and take us ever further away from the peaceful, political settlements that the people of Kashmir need.
