The moderate faction of the Hurriyat Conference on Friday accused the Centre of being non-serious about resolving the Kashmir issue in accordance of the wishes and aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.

“Government of India is engaged in non-serious acts aimed at delaying a solution to the long pending Kashmir issue. The appointment of interlocutors a year ago was part of this policy,” Hurriyat Chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq told a Friday congregation at the historic Jamia Masjid in downtown Srinagar.

He said Kashmiris are engaged in a prolonged struggle for their rights and are determined to see this movement to its logical conclusion.

He expressed satisfaction over the voices being raised for resolution of Kashmir issue within the civil society of the country.

Dismissing the report of the three-member team of central interlocutors, Mr. Mirwaiz said, “We have seen many such people in the past...from K.C. Pant to N.N. Vohra to Wajahat Habibullah and the latest team.”
