New Delhi, Mar 25, KDC: In a significant development, two constituents of the Hurriyat Conference have announced their complete disengagement from separatism, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday.
Welcoming the decision, Shah said that the unifying policies of the Narendra Modi-led government have effectively put an end to separatism in Jammu and Kashmir.
“Separatism has become history in Kashmir. The unifying policies of the Modi government have tossed separatism out of J&K. Two organizations associated with the Hurriyat have announced the severing of all ties with separatism.
I welcome this step towards strengthening Bharat’s unity and urge all such groups to come forward and shed separatism once and for all. It is a big victory for PM Shri @narendramodi Ji’s vision of building a developed, peaceful and unified Bharat,” Shah posted on social media platform X.
Meanwhile, Adv Mohammad Shafi Reshi, former chairman of one of the factions of Jammu and Kashmir Democratic Movement (DPM), has distanced himself from the banned faction All Parties Hurriyat Conference (Geelani faction).
Reshi confirmed to Srinagar based news agency Kashmir Dot Com (KDC), “I have nether any inclination towards, nor any sympathy for, the ideology OF APHC, as it has failed to acknowledge the legitimate aspirations and grievances of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
“Any use of my name by anyone, in connection with J&K Democratic political Movement (DPM), APHIC, any of it’s factions or constituents, or any other entity pursuing a separatist or similar agenda, shall be subject to legal action,” said.
