Srinagar: Directly blaming Army for disturbances in Kashmir, senior National Conference leader, Dr Shiekh Mustafa Kamal Wednesday said that the intentions of Army are not pure and they want to keep the pot boiling in Kashmir.
“Go and tell them (Army) where they got IED. Once there is peace there will be no role of Army in Kashmir and these people don’t want that peace should prevail in Kashmir,†Kamal told Srinagar based news agency on phone and added that besides Army there are scores of agencies which keep the pot of militancy boiling in Kashmir.
Describing the Army and other Agencies as “avowed†enemies of Kashmir, Kamaal said these agencies never wish to see Kashmir peaceful. “Disturbances give them chance to trample Kashmiri people. Their agenda is to suppress Kashmiri’s and they don’t want peace in Kashmir,†he said.
He said that the intentions of the Army are not pure. “From last two years Kashmir is witnessing peace and these people (Army) don’t want peace to continuously prevail in Kashmir,†he said and added that when from last two years no IED was found in Srinagar then why on a special day Army claimed that it detected an IED. “Go and ask Army where they detected the IED. These people don’t want that Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) should get revoked from Kashmir and they can go to any extent,†he told.
Kamal further said that Army is responsible for all the mess in Kashmir. “Army and other agencies try to give world a message that Kashmir is still a militancy-prone area and situation is not conducive here,†he said.
Hitting hart at Congress party, Kamal said that it is not worth to trust. “We had compelsions during 2008 but we are free now and will contest 2014 Assembly Elections by our own,†he said and added National Conference suffered a lot by forming coalition government with Congress.
He said NC does not need Congress anymore, as this party is not trustworthy.
