Harsh Dev alleged that Hurriyat leaders have all along been indulging in hate India campaign and acting as touts of Pakistan. He said the Hurriyat had pushed Kashmir into a vortex of violence and were responsible for violence, turmoil and spilling blood of innocents in Kashmir. Despite availing all facilitates from Govt of India, they were promoting separatists agenda in Kashmir which was intolerable, Singh said.
Mankotia and Kundal while seeking withdrawal of all facilities, security and other privileges given to Hurriyat leaders said that NPP opposes any kind of concessions given to anti-nationals. They said that Prof Bhim Singh’s statement on Hurriyat leaders could be his personal opinion and the party dis-associates itself from it. They further called upon the party leaders to refrain from making any statement on policy matters without the approval of the party chairman.
