Army
Chief calls for political solution to end Kashmir violence

New Delhi:
Army Chief General V K Singh has said that a political solution is
required to end the unrest in Jammu and Kashmir.
"I feel there is a great requirement for political initiatives that
take all people together," General Singh told the Times of India in
an interview.
"Militarily, we have brought the overall internal security situation
in Jammu and Kashmir under control. Now, the need is to handle
things politically," he said.
He said the armed forces are required to undertake operations in
very difficult circumstances.
"If the Jammu and Kashmir situation has come under control, it''s
the forces which have sacrificed with their blood," he added.
He said local police needed to be more active to allow the army,
currently numbering about 500,000, to reduce its presence in the
region.
He further said the Pakistan army also remains steadfast in its
Kashmir agenda, resorting to its old policy of giving ''covering or
distracting fire'' to help militants sneak across the LoC.
General Singh''s comments come at a time when the peace and
reconciliation process in Kashmir valley has taken a major hit with
the killing of eight youth in security related firing.
Curfew is still in place in most areas, including Sopore, Anantnag
and Baramulla Districts. Restrictions under Section 144, which
prohibit the assembly of over four persons, are in place in and
around Srinagar and Baramulla Districts.
Additional security forces have been deployed in Sopore, Baramulla
and downtown Srinagar.
Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has invited Union Home Minister P
Chidambaram to visit the state to review security and take steps to
end the violence.
