NEW DELHI, Oct 10: PM Modi’s words “Dil Ki Doorian Aur Delhi Se Doori Ko Mitanna Hai” is always intended to set right the Kashmir turbulence by reach out process with developments and benefits of pro-peoples schemes reaching the last common man in the remotest area is a laudable manifestation of current Government of India.
This was stated by Chairman, Kashmir Policy and Strategy Group, Ashok Bhan at a seminar today in Delhi as a key note speaker
The seminar was organised by Strategic Community.
Bhan also said that Kashmir has been in turbulence with continuing unrest for the last few years and sizeable numbers of local youth driven for recruitment in militancy.
“Kashmir is on the boil perpetually for the last more than three decades. Anti-terrorism units of Army, J&K police and other security forces and agencies are terming the elimination of terrorists and fewer arrests as a major success in anti-terrorist operations. It indeed is, but with a caveat as the collateral damage-the death of civilians and security personnel and damage to individual properties is painful,” he maintained adding that terrorism has rendered the State especially Kashmir without liberty and individuality.
Bhan further said that people know the disastrous consequences of the harm Pakistan and terrorists have done to the current and future generations of Kashmir. But the anti-India sentiment that has grown over the years is so strong that people refuse to see the logic.
“Modi’s outreach with people is intended to address the attitudinal, socio-cultural, political and economic grievances of the people in order to win hearts and trust of the people and let the menace of terrorism be handled by the professional security forces,” he said.
