Separatists don't want jobs for valley youths but Kashmir settlement | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT Jammu,Aug 11 : separatists are not prepared to respond positively to Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh's offer for dialogue which he has renewed during the All Party meeting he had chaired in New Delhi on Tuesday. Leaders belonging to the camps of the moderates and the hardliners say that there has been nothing new for the Prime Minister to offer. A senior Hurriyat Conference leader, Prof.Abdul Gani Bhat said that unless the Prime Minister and the Government he heads addresses the basic issue of Kashmir the valley will neither taste peace nor normalcy. He said that he could not find any purpose having been solved by the Delhi meet when an exercise on a smaller scale had been held in Srinagar on July 12 when Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah, ad convened an All Party meeting. Bhat said that Delhi needed to understand the "aspirations and sentiments of common people in the valley who had shown guts in facing the bullets from the security forces. He said more than 50 people have died in Kashmir during the last over two months and over 200 civilians injured hich indicated that people agitated angrily against the delay in the settlement of the Kashmir issue. Chairman APHC, Molvi Umar Farooq too has not accepted the offer for talks. He too has favoured set tlement of the Kashmir issue and wanted Delhi to resume purposeful and meaningful talks with Islamabad so that the Kashmir issue was settled amicably. The hardliners led by Syed Ali Shah Geelani find nothing new in the Prime Minister's offer.The hardliners want India to implement the UN resolution on Kashmir by allowing people of the state the right of self-determination. They said when the UN resolution had provided for holding a plesbiscite for determining the wishes of the people of Jammu and Kashmir it had also laid down that before holding the plebiscite Pakistan should pull out all its troops from occupied Kashmir."It had not done and hence there was no need for India to honour the UN resolution after Islamabad had violated the the resolution," Congress leaders said.
