Hurriyat Conference chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq Tuesday while expressing disappointment over the Supreme Court's Article 370 verdict, noted that it was not unexpected in the current circumstances.

Mirwaiz in a statement said the sense of betrayal felt by those who, during the partition of the subcontinent, played a role in the accession of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) to India. He emphasized that the people who placed trust in the promises and assurances made by the Indian leadership must now grapple with a deep sense of betrayal.
