All party delegation must talk to everyone: Karan Singh

SRINAGAR: Senior Congress leader Karan Singh today said the all-party delegation, which is scheduled to visit Kashmir on September 4, should talk to ‘everyone’ to find a way out of the current unrest in the Valley which has so far claimed 69 lives.

“It is my personal opinion that it (all-party delegation) should talk to everyone who is willing to talk because it is only through dialogue that there can be some movement forward,” Singh told reporters here.

Singh, son of the last king of Kashmir – Hari Singh, however, said the separatists must be ready to talk to the delegation too.

“They (separatists) should also be ready to talk. If they say beforehand that they will not talk, then how would there be a dialogue,”  he said.

The Rajya Sabha member said the situation in the Valley has pained him and he has come here to share the pain of the people. (AGENCIES)
