BANIHAL, May 16: Patron of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Mufti Mohammad Sayeed today reiterated that solution of Kashmir problem was must for establishing lasting peace and bringing stability in this region.
He, however, said that PDP's Self-Rule proposal has potential to address external and internal dimensions of the problems of Jammu and Kashmir.
Addressing a public meeting at Banihal today, Mufti asserted that road map prepared by his party was only practical and viable solution of the Kashmir problem. "Self Rule document is prepared by incorporating wishes and aspirations of all sections of the society", he said and added that PDP's road map was aimed at removing regional disparities and treating all regions and sub-regions equally.
"Our agenda is to restore dignity and honour of the people of Jammu and Kashmir and to make our State economically self reliant", he said.
"Before 1947 Kashmir was connected, through different routes, with Central and South Asia but all the routes were closed after the accession" he pointed out and informed the people that self-rule aimed at opening all traditional routes to make Kashmir as a business and trade centre of this region.
Mufti also reiterated demand of his party to re-negotiate discriminatory water agreements signed by the successive National Conference regimes by surrendering natural resources of the State.
