EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu, Oct 14: - An emergency meeting of Pradesh Youth Congress senior activists was held today at PYC headquarters, Shahidi Chowk, Jammu under the chairmanship of R. S. Pathania, senior vice-president, JKPYC.
In the meeting, appointment of Dilip Padgaonkar, Radha Kumar and M.M. Ansari as interlocutors on behalf of central government was welcomed.
Recalling the concern of Congress leadership,. Pathania recalled the words of Prime Minister "the anger and frustration of the youth of Kashmir" and that of AICC President who has vouched for "their legitimate aspirations" be respected. Whereas Kashmir is virtually snowballing into a conflict – point in South Asia with severe repercussions for the people over here. It is high time that the misled stone-pelting youth in Kashmir come to appreciate the sincerity and sense of belonging of the Prime Minister, AICC President and the national youth icon, Rahul, for their personal efforts in resolving the issue over here.
Further complimenting setting-up of Task Forces for Jammu and Ladakh, Pathania called upon the central leadership of the party to ensure that reports of these task forces does not gather dust like those of Gajendragadkar Commission and Wazir Commission. He said that Jammu and Ladakh have suffered the worst of discrimination and political alienation since 1947. Be a Hindu, Muslim, Pahari, Gujjar, Jatt or Sikh from R.S. Pura, Rajouri, Udhampur, Pir Panchal or Chenab Valley, or a Lama, Budhist or Shia from Ladakh, the people over here are equal emancipators of any meaningful dialogue with regard to political resolution of J & K.
