Srinagar:
Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh again tried to reach out to Kashmiri
separatists on Monday, saying his government was prepared to talk to
any group opposed to terrorism and violence in the embattled region
where militants have been fighting to end Indian rule.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh made a similar offer last month, with
little headway.
His two-day visit to Srinagar, the main city in the Indian Kashmir,
was greeted by a general strike on Monday called by the main
separatist group, whose leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani warned Singh
that “Kashmiris continue to detest India’s military occupation.”
Militant separatist groups have been fighting against Indian rule
since 1989.
Singh said that infiltration by insurgents from Pakistan into the
Indian portion of Kashmir from Pakistan had continued to spread
terrorism despite assurances by Islamabad.
“Meaningful talks between the two countries, which can lead to the
resolution of old issues, are possible only when Pakistan doesn’t
let its territory be used for acts of terror against India,” he
said.
India accuses Pakistan of training and arming insurgents to fight
Indian forces in Kashmir, a charge Islamabad denies.
Singh also referred to complaints of human rights abuses by Indian
security forces in Kashmir and promised to punish those guilty.
“I’m aware of some complaints related to human rights,” he said.
“Sometimes innocent civilians have to suffer, but whenever such
incidents happen it becomes necessary to act against those
responsible for them.”
Shops, schools and government offices shut
down as thousands of armed police and paramilitary soldiers
patrolled the streets of Srinagar and sealed off areas visited by
Singh.
Security forces warned residents to stay at home as they laid razor
wires and erected road checkpoints to foil protests by separatists
challenging Indian rule, a police officer said.
He said security forces were on maximum alert.
Road traffic was sparse with buses staying off the roads and few
private cars venturing out.
The call to strike was issued by Geelani, a key leader of Kashmir’s
separatist alliance, the All-Parties Hurriyat Conference.
“Holding guns to their heads, India wants Kashmiris to surrender.
But Manmohan Singh should know that this policy has failed here and
Kashmiris continue to detest India’s military occupation,” Geelani
said in a statement.
Omar Abdullah, Indian Kashmir’s top elected official, said Singh’s
visit was part of a comprehensive agenda of development and progress
in the region.
“I’m sure there will be a political element built into his agenda as
well,” he said.
