Srinagar July 29, 2018: Reacting to the statement issued by Dr. Jitender Singh a minister of state in prime minister’s office, All Parties Hurriyat Conference (G), termed the statement as a ‘sheer ignorance about the history of partition of India’.
Commenting on Singh’s assertion that the word “issue” should not be used with Kashmir, Hurriyat spokesman, in a statement, questioned: “Which country has placed Kashmir issue before the UN?” adding the presence of UN observers in Jammu and Kashmir is yet another clear proof that it is a disputed territory.
The spokesperson suggested Dr. Singh to have a fresh look on the history of Kashmir.
The spokesman also condemned the recent arrest spree in the nook and corner of the valley and termed it as the worst form of state-terrorism to push youth to the wall and disturb their social life.
