Trump met separately this week with both Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Prime Minister Imran Khan, who are both due to address the UN General Assembly on Friday. While Trump has forged a close bond with Modi, joining the Hindu nationalist at a massive rally on Sunday in Houston where the Indian leader boasted of his actions in Kashmir, a senior official said that the United States had concerns over the clampdown in the region. \u201cWe hope to see rapid action \u2013 the lifting of the restrictions and the release of those who have been detained,\u201d Alice Wells, the top State Department official for South Asia, told reporters. India in August revoked the autonomous status of occupied Jammu and Kashmir, which had been India\u2019s only Muslim-majority state. It detained a wide range of political leaders and restricted communications for ordinary people. While some measures have been eased, internet and cellular service has remained off for well over a month.\u201cThe United States is concerned by widespread detentions, including those of politicians and business leaders, and the restrictions on the residents of Jammu and Kashmir,\u201d Wells said. \u201cWe look forward to the Indian government\u2019s resumption of political engagement with local leaders and the scheduling of the promised elections at the earliest opportunity,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNITED NATIONS: The United States wants New Delhi to quickly ease restrictions imposed in occupied Kashmir, a senior official said on Thursday, declaring President Donald Trump\u2019s willingness to mediate to ease tensions between India and Pakistan over the territory.
