Isolate foreign
militants
Sir,
The unilateral
declaration of Ceasefire by the Govt of India as
a part of goodwill gesture for finding a long and
lasting solution to the Kashmir imbroglio has
brought to fore certain basic issues related to
the conduct of three principle constituents i.e.
Security Forces, militants and the people of the
State. The attitude and response of all these
parties needs to be viewed in the light of their
past and prevailing circumstances.
It goes to the
credit of the Security Forces that inspite of
repeated provocations, even at the cost of buying
casualties, that they have held their fire as
disciplined body of troops are ought to do.
Similar has been the attitude of the local
population which has not only welcomed the
goodwill gesture but has also extended their
whole hearted gratitude by clamouring for further
extensions of ceasefire including asking for
permanent solution to the J&K problem.
However, the same cannot be attributed to the
third party which, oblivious to the ground
realities after enforcement of ceasefire,
continues to perpetuate undesirable and heinous
crimes. Miserably divided, directionless and
isolated their mounting frustration is evident in
the daily quota of wanton killings of civilians.
These blood thirsty militants and their foreign
mentors have failed to realize that the guns have
to finally given way to the genuine desire of the
people for return of peace and prosperity to the
State of J&K. It is high time that the local
militants too realize as to what good for them
and the people of J&K, and they shed off the
yoke of foreign militants, who are here only to
make a fast buck at their cost.
Yours etc..
