Dialogue is the only mean to solve all issues: Mufti "PDP to act as facilitator to normalize Indo-Pak relations" 11/26/2014 11:28:20 PM Early Times Report Poonch, Nov 26: Reiterating that dialogue is the only mean to solve all vexed problems, patron of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Mufti Mohammad Sayeed today said that India and Pakistan should take reconciliation process to its logical end for restoring sustainable peace in this region. Addressing series of public meetings at Mendhar, Surankote and Poonch assembly segments in support of party candidates, Mufti reiterated commitment of his party to act as a facilitator to normalize Indo-Pak relations and to restore lasting peace in the sub-continent. Mufti is of the opinion that biggest challenge before the new government at New Delhi is to deal with the sensitive issue of Jammu and Kashmir and to address aspirations of the people of the State. Pointing towards the recent statement of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in which he had promised to follow the holistic path shown by former Prime Minister Mr Atal Behari Vajapyee while dealing with problems of Jammu and Kashmir, Mufti said that foundation for restoring peace between India and Pakistan was laid when Mr Vajpayee had extended hands of friendship towards Pakistan on April 18, 2003 while addressing a public meeting at Srinagar. "Dialogue is the only option to establish peace in this region", he said, adding, "Former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee had stated that we can change friends but not neighbourers so both the neighbouring countries have no option but to go for talks". He hoped that both the countries should carry forward the process of peace and reconciliation. Highlighting the historical role played by the PDP in normalizing relations between India and Pakistani, he said that opening of cross LoC routes was the biggest ever Confidence Building Measures (CBMs) between two countries and credit for this goes to PDP only. "We are ready to play the role of felicitator in the process of normalizing relations between two countries", he said.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
