Separatists unnerved as India cancels talks with Pakistan | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 22: Even as New Delhi announced cancellation of talks with Pakistan, the development has left the separatists unnerved in Kashmir. Sources said the separatists have been told by their Pakistani handlers to "be prepared for the worse in the coming days as the prospects of Government of India going soft on them are over." New Delhi on Thursday had initially accepted Pakistan's request for a meeting between External Affairs Minister SushmaSwaraj and her Pakistani counterpart Shah Mahmood Qureshi on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. But following killing of three policemen in Kashmir, the External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Raveesh Kumar while announcing cancellation of the scheduled meeting said the incidents "exposed" the "true face" of Pakistan's new Prime Minister Imran Khan to the world as well as Islamabad's evil agenda behind the proposal for talks. "The latest brutal killings of our security personnel by Pakistan-based entities and the recent release of a series of 20 postage stamps by Pakistan glorifying a terrorist and terrorism confirm that Pakistan will not mend its ways," Kumar said. Sources said initially the separatists were told by Pakistan not to worry as the Foreign Affair ministers of the neighboring countries were scheduled to meet in the US. Sources said the Pakistan had told Hurriyat leaders in Kashmir that during the talks in US, Islamabad would ask New Delhi to go soft on separatists as a part of "confidence building measures." But now as the talks have been cancelled, all such hopes have dashed. Sources said the separatists are now worried about more arrests in the coming days. Pertinently the government has decided for a massive crackdown on the separatists while arrests are underway. It was reliably learnt that in the wake of cancellation of talks, the so called Joint Resistance Leadership plans to hold a meeting in the coming days to decide future course of action. |
