Moderate All Party Hurriyat Conference (APHC) on March 24 said that both India and Pakistan need to engage in “serious” and “result-oriented talks” to settle all issues pending for decades, including Kashmir, and hoped that the composite dialogue announced during Foreign Secretary-level talks will be a “milestone” in realising this dream, reports Daily Excelsior. After meeting with Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit in New Delhi, APHC chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq told reporters, “We have time and again demonstrated that we are not against talks between the two countries and in fact we sincerely believe that dialogue is the only mechanism with which the two countries can solve all issues.” Mirwaiz, who was accompanied by several separatist leaders, including Abdul Gani Bhat and Maulana Abbas Ansari, made it clear that Kashmir-specific Confidence Building Measures (CBMs) need to be taken by India and Pakistan. “Any tough posturing by either side will do no good to ensure peace and stability in South Asia. And while talking about Kashmir, both the sides need to keep in mind that aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir need to be taken into account,” he said.

Without naming anyone, paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) on March 25 blamed ‘some separatists’ for provoking Kashmiri youth to tread path of militancy in Jammu and Kashmir but expressed hope that they will return to the mainstream, reports Daily Excelsior. “We won’t blame anybody. May be they are carried away and misguided by some separatist group. But at the same time I am sure they will come back to mainstream, and it is much of hype, it’s not much of the increase in militants,” said Deputy Inspector General (DIG) CRPF, Sanjeev Dhundia, Srinagar (North) on the sidelines of a function. He was replying to a question with regard to increase in local recruitment of militants in Valley over the last two years. The DIG, however, said the Security Forces (SFs) are in control of the situation. “Of course, lately, a few incidents have happened but things are in control and CRPF and JKP (Jammu and Kashmir Police) together is able to control the situation and we will handle it well and we will try our best that peace loving citizens of our State and Country have a wonderful future and life ahead,” he said.
