The leaders, while expressing their grave resentment over the recent statement of Chief Minister of the state challenging the state's merger with Indian Union in State Assembly accused him for the present turmoil in Kashmir Valley. ``It was the wrong governance and wrong policies of the National Conference-Congress coalition Government in the state that led to present lawlessness in Valley'', alleged the speakers. They blamed Omar Abdullah for his total failure in delivering the goods and coming to the expectations of the people in the state. They alleged that growing corruption and mismanagement has generated a lot of resentment among the masses who have taken a banner of revolt against the Government. The Muslim leaders from the state including Engineer Ghulam Ali, Ashraf Azad, Khalida Begum, Maqbool Malik and Farooq Ganderbali lashed out at those political parties in the state and separatists for challenging the accession of the state with Union of India. Terming the accession as full and final, the Muslim leaders from the Valley accused some vested elements for misleading the people of Kashmir. Addressing the seminar Mr Jagmohan said Kashmir problem has been created by certain vested elements while the majority people of the Valley are peace loving.
