Srinagar: Political parties and the common man in Jammu and Kashmir Friday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi should have announced a larger relief package during his day-long visit to the state instead of Rs.745 crore.

Naeem Akhtar, chief spokesman of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), told IANS here: "What Modi announced yesterday (Thursday) is actually an interim relief of Rs.745 crore and not the package everybody here had in mind."
