Terming the autonomy, self rule and Azadi totally impracticable, sensational and emotional, Kundan Kashmiri said that it has no relevance in the context of present scenario but are just emotive slogans to exploit the people and befool them for the vested interests by these politicians.
Kashmiri said the people of the State want peace, prosperity and development and cautioned them to be aware of these political parties who have always skirted the real issues concerning the masses and used emotional slogans to hoodwink them.
He said people of Kashmir especially the Muslims have realized that being part of India which is the largest democracy of the world is in their advantage and they are now fed up with hollow slogans of separatists.
