Srinagar: The All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq today convened the meeting of Hurriyat executive council members at Mirwaiz Manzil Nigeen, a statement issued by the amalgam said.
During the meeting the participants took stock of the existing political situation in the sub-continent and also discussed party matters. Expressing serious concern over the recent escalation of violence on borders between Indian and Pakistan, the participants stressed upon the leadership of both the countries to exhibit political maturity and farsightedness by taking steps to prevent the delicate situation from turning out of hand. The participants stated that before the situation takes an ugly turn, leadership of both the countries should shed their confrontational approach and take serious initiatives to solve the issues between them. The participants stated that talk of peace and prosperity in the region were meaningless without solving the Kashmir dispute on urgent basis according to the political aspirations of Kashmiris.

The participants felt that Kashmiris living across the borders become victims of tension prevailing between the two countries. To put an end to the bloodshed and violence, they stated that it was important that both countries should sit together and hammer out the solutions to their existing issues.
