| Why should I apologize for my Hurriyat comment? : Farooq Abdullah | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Dec 8: Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister and National Conference patron Farooq Abdullah on Thursday said he won't apologise for his remarks on the Hurriyat. He added that people of Kashmir are united because they want a final settlement of the state. "Why should I apologize? don't you want settlement or do you want bombings on the border all the time, do you want innocent people to die. It is the citizen of Kashmir on both the sides who are dying and we are united because we want a final settlement of the state", Abdullah said.
Abdullah said India need to talk to all stakeholders in Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh.
"How will you resolve the Kashmir issue without talking to Pakistan? The two countries have to talk to each other. Also the Centre needs to initiate talks with the constituents of Jammu, Ladakh and Kashmir to find an amicable solution to the issue," Abdullah added.
Launching attack on the Centre, Abdullah said India should not blame him only because the ruling BJP-PDP is also talking to everybody, including Hurriyat.
"Why blame me only? Ruling BJP-PDP is talking to everybody, in their agenda they have said that Hurriyat must be talked to," he said.
The former chief minister had raked up a controversy on Monday by expressing his willingness to work with Separatists to work for the Kashmir cause. |
