Srinagar: Renowned social activist and religious leader Swami Agnivesh Monday expressed serious concern on the Kashmir issue during a peace conference held here at SKICC.
Talking to the reporters on the side-lines of the conference, he said, "India should talk straight to the people of Kashmir and if they can’t then there is no need to come Kashmir except for tourism."
“Delhi is trying to make Kashmir their state and those who represent Kashmir in Delhi are only for namesake” said Swami.
He added that Government of India should come forward to talk face to face to the people of Valley.
“There should be an immediate revocation of Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) from Jammu and Kashmir,” said Swami.
Commenting on the killing of Naxal leader Aazad, he said, "When moist leader Azad was killed I alone filed a case in the Supreme Court against his killing but during summer unrest 2010 in Kashmir there were 118 innocent killings. Why there was no such judicial enquiry."
“There is an immediate need to call for probe in all innocent killings and to release all prisoners who are detained in different jails of India,” he added.
