| SYED SALAHUDDIN,GEELANI TOGETHER BLAME PAK FOR ITS U-TURN ON KASHMIR | | |
Srinagar, Nov 23
Following in the foot steps of Tehrik Hurriyat Conference Chief, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Muzaffarabad based chief of United Jehad Council,Syed Salahuddin,has now joined ranks with him vis-a-vis blaming Pakistan Government for adopting a u-turn on their Kashmir police and letting down Jehadis."
In a recent newspaper interview Syed Salahuddin has said that "we no longer have been recipient of moral and material support from Islamabad which had come under the US pressure."
During the last one year Mr Geelani has been critical of Gen. Musharraf saying that "the Pakistan President had sidelined the Kashmir issue and had given weightage to trade and travel in the ongoing confidence building measures and the dialogue."
On the same pattern Syed Salahuddin had said that "gradually Pakistan Government had begun deviating from the committment it had made to us." "we no longer receive support and whatever aid was being given to us to keep the jehad alive had been stopped,"he said.
The Council supremo said that "we have the resources and we shall not be cowed down by suspension of material and moral support by Islamabad."
Both Geelani and Salahuddin actually want Pakistan to mount pressure on Delhi so that the ongoing talks remained Kashmir centric.
Political observers here are of the opinion that having realized that in the absence of moral and material support from Islamabad Kashmiri separatists had lost the vital issue to harp on and hence have started clamoring over the Government's plan to give on lease land to businessmen and those connected with tourist industry for building hotels and huts at tourist resorts in collaboration with business houses from outside the state.
Both the factions of the Hurriyat conference have demanded that land for building hotels and huts should have no collaboration from non state subjects. They have even called for ban on entry of labourers, masons and carpenters from outside the state into Kashmir which could otherwise alter the demographic character of the valley.
