SRINAGAR: J&K High Court Bar Association Kashmir Thursday termed New Delhis possibility of reviving the Talks Process with the pro-freedom leadership of the state, as a futile exercise and described the same as a superficial slogan to mislead the world community.
In an executive committee meeting yesterday, a Bar statement said: It was stated that whenever there is pressure from International Community on India to resolve Kashmir issue, it, instead of complying with the mandate of Security Council Resolutions, shows falsely its willingness to hold talks with the pro-freedom leadership, but within the framework of Indian Constitution, forgetting that such an offer, in the past, has all along been rejected, by one and all, as the talks previously held have not yielded any result.
If India was sincere in resolving the Kashmir issue, then it should immediately take steps to implement the Security Council Resolutions on Kashmir and by holding plebiscite in the state, under the auspices of UN, give the people an opportunity to decide about their future, the statement said adding, India is, otherwise, also committed to the holding of such a plebiscite, in the state of J&K, in terms of International Law, as also under the provison added to Article 253 of the Indian Constitution by J&K Constitutional application order of 1994, which guarantees the holding of plebiscite, in the State of J&K.
