When Sachin and Sara's relationship became public, a smear campaign on Abdullah's daughter marrying a ‘kafir' had already begun in the Kashmir valley.
Even his party legislators turned against this relationship saying Muslim men could marry outside their religion but Islam does not permit a girl to marry to a non-Muslim.
Sachin and Sara decided to wait for few more months, but very soon they realized that their wait would be futile because even after months, protests had to continue anyways.
And Farooq Abdullah would have no option than to surrender once again to the whims of his party legislators.
