| Home Ministry admits Dineshwar's appointment yielded no results | | Mission Interlocutor fails in JK | |
Early Times Report
Jammu, May 27: The Government of India has finally admitted that its decision to appoint interlocutor for Kashmir hasn't yielded the desired results.
On October 23, last year, former Intelligence Bureau (IB) chief Dineshwar Sharma, was appointed as the government's special representative to carry forward a dialogue with all sections of the people in Jammu and Kashmir.
Soon after his appointment, he had said that he would ensure that "normalcy returns to the State as soon as possible."
Sharma, while visiting Valley for the past six months, has met a cross section of people across the state and played a crucial role in freeing the stone pelters against whom the cases related to the stone pelting were registered for the first time.
However, after six months of his appointment, the Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh admitted that Sharma's appointment as interlocutor didn't yield any desired results and hasn't changed the situation on ground.
The New Delhi based newspapers quoted the interview of Union Home minister Rajnath Singh and reported that while he (Singh) admitted that measures to restore normalcy in Kashmir, through initiatives like the appointment of an interlocutor, have not had the desired results, Singh said the government was committed to restoring peace and may extend the ceasefire in Kashmir after Ramzan "if the situation remains peaceful".
"During Ramzan, we have announced suspension of operation. But you are indulging in ceasefire violation.
You don't want that our Muslim brothers and sisters in Kashmir should get an opportunity to have a peaceful Ramzan… It shows your intentions.
Pakistan has no sympathy for Kashmiris.
If they had any sympathy, they would have welcomed our move.
This is something even the people of Kashmir should understand. Pakistan treats Kashmiris as its tools," he said. |
