The Modi Government has institutionalised the dialogue process in Jammu & Kashmir with the appointment of an exclusive officer who will always be available for a “sustained” dialogue, Union Minister Dr Jitendra Singh said here today.
“The dialogue process was always going on (in J&K). But now it has been sought to institutionalise the process by appointing a senior officer for a “sustained” dialogue with all the stakeholders in all the three regions — Jammu, Ladakh and Kashmir — as well as the rest of India,” said the Union Minister , adding “Kashmir belongs to India and each of the 125 crore Indians is a stakeholder .”
Dr Jitendra Singh said, the opposition parties are trying, in vain, to seek political mileage, but instead they could extend cooperation if they are sincerely concerned about the common man, particularly the common youth of Kashmir. He said, some disgruntled politicians, who are down and out, are trying to get their pound of flesh but the people of Kashmir, particularly youth are keen to move ahead as part of the development journey of India led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“It is a welcome step forward in the process which is already going on under the Modi Government,” said Dr Jitendra Singh, who represents Udhampur constituency of the State in the Lok Sabha.
