Mohammad Akbar Lone Biography

Senior National Conference leader Mohammad Akbar Lone is one of the few leaders from the old guard of Kashmir’s mainstream political spectrum.
Born into a family of landlords who cultivated rice, apples and linseed in Bandipora’s Naidkhai village, Lone climbed the political ladder in the turbulence-ridden landscape of Kashmir with both perseverance and political gimmickry.
He has been active in politics for nearly five decades and remains undefeated from his home turf of Sonawari constituency in north Kashmir’s Bandipora district for over two decades. Apart from political activities, he finds an interest in reading books.
