Hurriyat patriarch Syed Ali Geelani on Friday asked “all stakeholders” to “abstain” from engaging with All-Party delegation (APD) led by Union Home Minister scheduled to visit Kashmir on September 04, 2016.
“The Indian parliamentary delegation is coming to Kashmir after passing a resolution that Kashmir an integral part of India,” Geelani said in an APHC-g statement issued this afternoon, “therefore this delegation neither has mandate nor the intention to resolve the dispute of Jammu and Kashmir.”
“We suggest to all stakeholders to refrain from engaging in this meaningless exercise of meeting this delegation,” Geelani said.
“Indian parliamentarians should have a special session of parliament where they should accept the disputed nature of Jammu and Kashmir to pave the way for holding referendum in whole of the state that existed in 1947 to settle this issue permanently, peacefully and democratically,” the ailing Hurriyat Conference chief said.
