NEW DELHI, May 6: Kashmiri Pandit Conference (KPC) has criticized the BJP led NDA Government at the Center for its shift in policy towards the Kashmiri separatists including Hurriyat by allowing them to meet any representative and other worldwide leaders in India.
KPC Chief Kundan Kashmiri stated that earlier the same BJP had termed the separatists “anti-nationals” and had been demanding that they should be put behind bars and this shift of BJP’s policy towards Kashmiri separatists clearly shows that it is working tacitly and systematically on the alliance of agreement it has earlier reached with PDP. This was one of the main demands of PDP to BJP leaders before and after reaching with an alliance to engaging Hurriyat in the dialogue.
This policy shift towards separatist, Hurriyat and other pro –militant organizations in the Valley clearly indicates the Central Government, led by BJP succumbed under the pressure of PDP leadership as well as Pakistan, when the same BJP, led Government at Centre had cancelled the then foreign secretary’s visit to Islamabad in August, 2014 in a reaction to Pakistani High Commissioner Abdul Basit’s meeting with Hurriyat leaders and raised objection to Pak Ambassador Abdul Basit for calling Hurriyat and other separatists at the Pakistan Day (2016) celebration in Delhi.
