New Delhi, June 16: Ahead of next week's talks between India and Pakistan to reduce the "trust deficit", former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah today said one should not expect results "overnight".
He also said the relation between the countries had seen a lot of ups and downs. It was an ongoing process to have better relations with the neighbours and talks would help to normalise ties, he added.
It will take time as government has already made it clear that a lot has happened between India and Pakistan, he said, adding, "Don't expect rapid results to come overnight. But the process is on for creating better relations with Pakistan."
On the situation in the valley, the Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy said "There is a decline in militancy. But there is no doubt that militants still try to infiltrate and our security forces are dominating them."
