SRINAGAR: Tripartite Accord on Kashmir Soon: Mirwaiz, All Parties Hurriyat Conference Chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has said that he has reached tripartite agreement on the issue of Kashmir through backdoor diplomacy.
The APHC leader said a New Delhi-Srinagar agreement with Pakistan on board is one of the key objectives of the ongoing Track II initiatives between India and Pakistan and the “quiet” dialogue between the Centre and Hurriyat, says Hurriyat chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq.
Mirwaiz, said there was forward movement on many fronts which could, hopefully, lead to a “substantive” outcome.
“A lot is happening. Work is going on…on many possible solutions, one of which is an agreement between New Delhi and Srinagar with Pakistan’s blessings,” Mirwaiz said.
However, Mirwaiz said the basic paradigm of the engagement is inspired by former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf’s four-point proposal for an acceptable solution to Kashmir.
“India is not ready for the joint-management part of the proposals which talk about joint control of foreign affairs, currency and communications in Kashmir,” Mirwaiz said. “There’s a broader agreement on the other aspects of this settlement model”.
Mirwaiz said that on Kashmir the new dispensation in Islamabad hasn’t departed markedly from the approach adopted by Musharraf’s government. He said “India has to overcome a huge credibility crisis in Kashmir before setting off any dialogue.”
