Amid All Party Meet buzz in J&K, separatists become insignificant

Early Times Report

Jammu, June 23: As the political atmosphere in Jammu and Kashmir is abuzz due to the scheduled All Party Meeting called by the Prime Minister Modi, if there is any section which is feeling irrelevant, it is the separatist camp in the Valley.
Neither there is even a single word coming from them nor is anyone talking about their pertinence amid the ongoing political developments in the erstwhile state. The talks which are scheduled to be held on Thursday in New Delhi are gaining momentum in terms of the large scale discussions on public podiums. However, what catches one’s eye is the fact that there is no one talking about the separatists and that they used to exist somewhere once upon a time.
“This is the tectonic shift in Kashmir politics. On one side the separatists are themselves in oblivion and on the other side people have in outright manner forgotten about them. What greater change there could be other than this in a place where the separatists in the past used to dominate the discussions at large,” said a Jammu based senior scribe.
On June 28, last year, the die- hard Pro Pakistani supporter, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, shook everyone with his audio message in which he declared that he is quitting Hurriyat Conference which he himself founded and headed for about two decades.
The reasons Geelani gave for leaving the amalgam was the lack of discipline within its ranks and silence maintained post abrogation of Article 370. One year down the line, there is meanwhile no statement- not even a single one coming from any faction of Geelani or from the hurriyat hawk himself.
In the year 2019, even ahead of the abrogation of Article 370 , when Home Minister Amit Shah visited Valley, the separatists including Geelani for the first time since the eruption of militancy in 1990, issued no strike call on the Home Minister’s visit.
Post Abrogation of 370, separatists issued no strike or chalo calls. It was in June 2018 when in a statement, the separatists jointly termed Kashmiris as hospitable and have even gone ahead with welcoming the Amarnath pilgrims to Valley.
All this was being done by them to hoodwink public opinion and distract the masses from the crimes they have committed against the people and how they have repeatedly developed fear psychosis in the minds of then tourists against Kashmir, leaving the tourism sector dying on a deathbed.
Now when talks between the Prime Minister and Kashmir’s political groups are about to happen, the outcome could be anything but one things is for sure that separatists have become insignificant.
