| Kashmiri separatists do not feel dismayed over UN report | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
Jammu, Nov 16 :- Kashmiri separatists believe that there was no reason for them to feel dismayed over the reports indicating that Jammu and Kashmir has not found a place in the UN list of disputes.
Commenting on the report, a senior APHC leader, Professor Abdul Gani Bhat, said that the Kashmir issue cannot cease to be a dispute if the UN does not include it in the list of disputes. "Kashmir is a dispute the origin of which is rooted in the political history of the subcontinent," Bhat said.
The Hurriyat leader said that "you cannot shut your eyes and treat Kashmir a settled issue when two major nuclear countries, India and Pakistan, are locked in the dispute."
Asked if he does not think that the Kashmir issue can be no longer a dispute when the UN has dropped it from the list of disputes, Bhat said, "yes we have been demanding the implementation of the UN resolution as the world body had in 1948 believed that the dispute could be settled through a plebiscite.
Pertinent to mention the separatists have been, over the last four decades, campaigning in favour of implementing the UN resolutions on Kashmir,
He said that whether the UN recognises Kashmir as a dispute or not but the problem has assumed serious dimensions because of hot Afghanistan and involvement of China and America in the political and security affairs of the south Asian region.
Bhat wanted Washington to stop playing political pranks and start mediating between India and Pakistan so that the most dangerous dispute over Kashmir was resolved.
In reply to another question the Hurriyat leader said that the only alternative to a third-party mediation on Kashmir was the resumption of a composite dialogue with Pakistan on one and on the other the dialogue with the Kashmiri separatists. He said that the best possible way for settling the Kashmir issue was through sustained a meaningful triangular dialogue.
Bhat, however, hastened to add that the last report from the UN headquarters revealed that the world body has accepted its mistake for having delinked Jammu and Kashmir from the list of disputes.
