KPC snubs Mehbooba, Abdullah for demanding dialogue with Pak

Excelsior Correspondent

JAMMU, Feb 22: Kashmiri Pandit Conference (KPC) while strongly reacting over Mehbooba Mufti and Farooq Abdullah’s, statements demanding talks with Pakistan asked them not to poke their nose in those issues which fall under the domain of Government of India.
While strongly reacting over the yesterday’s statement of Farooq Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti demanding holding of talks with Pakistan by Indian Government over Kashmir, KPC president, Kundan Kashmiri said that both leaders of PDP and NC are commenting more on political issues which don’t fall in their domain than on those concerned with the development and governance of the Union Territory of J&K. They are now pressurizing the Indian nation and its Government to hold talks with Pakistan on Kashmir which is a non–issue, reinstating of Article 370 in J&K and other issues which are completely Pak centric.
Kundan Kashmiri, while addressing a meeting at New Delhi stated that it is astounding that the PDP and NC are now forcing the Centre under different pretexts to re-start the process of dialogue with Pakistan on their dictates which is direct interference and meddling in the policies of Government , when a lot of change has taken place after August 5, 2019, in Kashmir and both the governments at the Centre and UT of JK are making all efforts to restore normalcy and take the UT on the path of development.
He said these Kashmiri leaders should learn to talk within limits and not make Government every time answerable to them just to appease Pakistan or a section of separatists in Kashmir.
He said the Central Government is only answerable to the people of the country through Parliament of India, which has accepted and confirmed time and again that both the parts of JK are integral part and parcel of Indian nation and in this regard number of resolutions on Jammu and Kashmir were passed by Indian Parliament. Among these is the resolution passed unanimously by both Houses on February, 22, 1994. to take PoK back from Pakistan and the recent resolution of abrogation of Article 370, he added.
