| ‘Self rule’ a conspiracy against J&K people | | | Srinagar, Aug 24 Breakaway Hurriyat Conference chairman Syed Ali Shah Geelani has rejected the self-rule proposal as ''a conspiracy to snatch the right of self-determination from the people of Jammu and Kashmir''.
Significantly, the Hizbul Mujahideen, the single largest indigenous militant group operating in Jammu and Kashmir, had supported the proposal, saying this could be implemented only after India and Pakistan withdrew troops from the areas of the state under their respective control.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), a ruling coalition partner in Jammu and Kashmir, over the past several months had been repeatedly pressing for the implementation of the self-rule proposal on both sides of the Line of Control (LoC).
Geelani said, ''I reject the self-rule proposal. The Indian agents are lobbying for it as a solution to the Kashmir issue. It is a conspiracy to snatch the right of self-determination from the people of Jammu and Kashmir.'' ''The ongoing freedom struggle is against the sovereignty of India. And those who talk of the self-rule proposal are trying to sow its seeds in Jammu and Kashmir,'' he added. |
