The APHC leaders termed as "negative" the Union Government’s view that their travel beyond PoK would be contrary to the understanding reached between New Delhi and Islamabad. "This is a negative approach considering the improvement in relations between India and Pakistan," said former Hurriyat chief Abdul Ghani Bhatt. "Technicalities and politics rarely go together. In politics, there has to be flexibility and if this does not happen, the attitude will have to be rated as negative," he added. Current Hurriyat chairman Mirwaiz Umer Farooq said: "it is premature to react on the Government’s decision giving clearance to the visit of separatists to PoK only. We have not been conveyed about this."

The United Jehad Council (UJC), an umbrella grouping of Pakistan-based terrorist groups, has reportedly opposed the decision of moderate faction of All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) and the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) to travel to Pakistan, saying it would be "more detrimental" to the separatist cause in Jammu and Kashmir.

Syed Ali Shah Geelani, leader of the breakaway faction of All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC), on May 29 rejected Pakistan’s invitation to visit that country and Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) by the Srinagar-Muzaffarabad bus on June 2, in protest against Islamabad’s "flexible stand" on the Kashmir issue. "We have decided against going to Pakistan and PoK in the Srinagar-Muzaffarabad bus on June 2. We are showing our resentment to the present policies of the Pakistan Government vis-à-vis Kashmir issue," Geelani told a press conference in Srinagar. Geelani is reported to have accused Pakistan of softening its stand on the Kashmir issue. According to Geelani, "He [President Musharraf] is giving great concessions to India... And has given several proposals which dilute Pakistan’s stand on the Kashmir issue."
