Omar triggers row, claims Centre accepted Geelani’s demands

After raising the issue of final accession of the State of Jammu & Kashmir with the Union of India, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has now sparked off another controversy by claiming that New Delhi had accepted all five points put forth by the hard-line separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani to initiate Kashmir-centric dialogue.
In a comprehensive interview to a Kashmir-based local news agency on Thursday Omar Abdullah reportedly stated, “New Delhi has already accepted all five points raised by Hurriyat (G) Chairman Syed Ali Shah Geelani to begin dialogue with New Delhi.”
Many an eyebrow was raised in the State unit of the Congress as one of the contentious demands included that India should accept Kashmir as an international dispute.
Throughout the day several attempts were made by this correspondent to reach office of the Chief Minister and his political advisor but failed to extract any official reaction. Even the email forwarded to the Political advisor was not responded to before the filing of the report.
Prior to the visit of the three interlocutors the all party delegation had visited the State to explore the possibility of initiating a high-level meaningful dialogue involving all shades of opinion on Kashmir. At that time the separatist leader had put forth his five-point agenda to join the parleys.
According to the excerpts of the widely published interview, Omar Abdullah had also stated that, “Three interlocutors appointed by New Delhi have already declared Kashmir as a dispute and they have acknowledged that Pakistan has a role. New Delhi has not denied any of these statements. Remaining four points of the formula fall within the domain of the State Government and we are working on it.”
“Does Geelani want Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to declare Kashmir as a dispute in Parliament?” Omar reportedly questioned his intentions.
Omar also reportedly stated Pakistan had an important role to play for the final resolution of the Kashmir issue.
“If Pakistan had no role, late Jawaharlal Nehru would not have sent my grandfather Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah to Pakistan for holding talks with General Ayub Khan,” he said.
Omar said from Tashkent to Shimla and from Shimla to Lahore and Agra, summits have been held and declarations signed to find a durable solution to the Kashmir issue. “It is an international issue and has to be resolved,” he added.
Responding to a question on his recent speech in the State Assembly Omar told KNS news agency, “My speech in the legislature is a history. It reflects my way of thinking and New Delhi had no role to play in it.”
The state unit of Congress is finding it difficult to digest the ally’s controversial remarks.
State PCC chief Prof Saifuddin Soz told The Pioneer over telephone, “As Chief Minister Omar Abdullah may be aware of this current development but I am personally not aware of any such demand accepted by the New Delhi.”
Soz said, “I also cannot comment anything beyond this.” But when quizzed further over intentions of the Chief Minister behind repeatedly making statements using the term ‘Kashmir dispute’, Soz clarified, “As far I am concerned I have never used the term ‘Kashmir dispute’ in any of my utterances. We have always maintained and used the term ‘Kashmir issue’.”
A senior party leader told The Pioneer, “Omar is trying to salvage his lost pride by reaching out to his constituency in Kashmir but at the same time he is embarrassing us by repeatedly raising sensitive issues. The Congress leader said, “It is high time we have to find a way out to put a full stop to immature and unwanted utterances of the Chief Minister otherwise it will be too late for us to step out for damage control.”

India equates Jammu & Kashmir with Tibet?
Pranab Dhal Samanta
Mon Nov 15 2010
Barely a month ahead of Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao’s visit to India next month, New Delhi has made it clear that it expects Beijing to set the record straight on Jammu & Kashmir by reciprocating just the way India has done in the case of Chinese sensitivities in Tibet and Taiwan.
This was conveyed by External Affairs Minister S M Krishna to his Chinese counterpart Yang Jiechi in the course a 70-minute bilateral conversation on the margins of the Russia-India-China trilateral meet here on Sunday.
However, Yang continued to be ambiguous in his response and did not even raise the issue of New Delhi having frozen high-level military exchanges after Beijing conveyed that the Northern Army Commander would have to be considered for a stapled visa as he is in-charge of a “disputed area”.
Giving out details of these talks, Foreign Secretary Nirupama Rao put it bluntly on record: “Our minister (Krishna) referred to the need to show mutual sensitivity and that the Chinese side needs to be sensitive to our concerns in J&K like India has been sensitive to Chinese concerns on Taiwan and Tibet.”
rkirankr ji.You can also show him the interview of E.Ramamohan who was former DGP BSF and also a former Army man.I think his videos were posted in the Red menace thread.A real Professional.If he watches this interview lot of his misconceptions about Indian army and security personnel will be cleared.rkirankr wrote:^^ Hi guys , thanks for the tip
Made some progress. First he was reluctant to raise the issue during tea break today. Though we taunted him in a friendly manner.
He conceded to some of our points saying "maybe you are right". He also agreed he has not read much but only follows "very good", "reputed" (in his words)media like The week, outlook, India Today. He conceded may be they might have been wrong now and then.
So a small crack in the fortress. I will try to widen it so that some real knowledge would reach him
Thanks once again
Kashmir is India's 'Internal' Issue : US Envoy
PTI, Nov 15, 2010
NEW DELHI: With Kashmir reportedly being excluded from the UN list of unresolved disputes, the US today said it was an "internal issue" of India and should be resolved bilaterally through negotiations with Pakistan.
"This is an internal issue for India. It is a bilateral issue between Pakistan and India, to discuss term, scope, character and pace," US Ambassador Timothy Roemer said.
He was asked to comment on UN excluding Kashmir from list of unresolved international issues.
"The (US) President ( Barack Obama), I think was very articulate on this issue of Kashmir. This is an internal issue for India," he said on the sidelines of a function here.
Roemer noted that during his visit, Obama had said that he encouraged Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and people of India to engage with the government and people of Pakistan.
He underlined that whenever India and Pakistan talk, it will be at the "pace and character" of the two countries.
On Obama announcing support for India's bid for permanent UNSC membership, he said the US will now work to realise the promise.
"We are very proud about President's announcement that he is unequivocally and fervently in favour of India having a permanent seat in a reformed United Nations. It was one of the many highlights of (his) visit to India..We will be working to see that happen," Roemer said.

It is about 7% of J&K.The Vale of Kashmir, which is often used synonymously with the state of Jammu and Kashmir in international forums, is the only portion affected by separatism in the state.
One wonders if New Delhi was able to procure President Barack Obama's silence on the Kashmir issue during his recent trip to Bharat
How is the above India's fault and why should India make the overtures!Ahmed Rashid stressed in Foreign Policy Magazine last week that the road to Kabul runs through Kashmir, and America's biggest mistake is its failure to recognize Pakistan's near-fatal obsession with India. Pakistani Army Chief, General Kayani, ..., whose fears are deeply rooted in a Pakistani military mindset that will require major Indian overtures before it changes.

After evading arrest for nearly a decade, Hizbul Mujahideen's self-styled divisional commander Mohammed Abdullah referred to as “Mr Surrender”, was arrested in Delhi early today.
Mohammed Abdullah Chechi, alias Abdullah Inqualabi, a resident of Pak-occupied Kashmir (PoK), had come to Delhi last week to "activate some sleeper cells," a senior police officer said.
He was arrested in a joint operation by the Jammu and Kashmir and the Delhi police from Deer Park in South Delhi and police claimed he was nabbed after a brief exchange of fire.
Abdullah was known as "Mr Surrender" as he used to contact several senior police officials with a proposal to surrender while carrying out his nefarious activities.

and started appreciating our works and systems. Just tell your guy to discuss his views here. His arrogance will be ripped in unmentionable ways. But its a favor to him actually.The National Investigation Agency on Tuesday named Pakistan national 'Wali' Abdul Rahman as an accused in the case of recruitment of youth from Kerala for terrorist activities in Kashmir.
He has been named as 24th accused in the case which hit the headlines after the death of four Malayalee youth in an encounter with security forces in the valley in October 2008. The dead were identified as Mohd Fayaz of Kannur, Abdul Rahim of Malappuram, Rimon alias Mohd Yasin - a convert from Christianity - from Ernakulam and Fayeez of Kannur.
Subsequently, it came to light that Faisal was one of the main recruiting agents for Lashkar-e-Toiba and is believed to have taken at least 300 men, mostly from Kannur, to Bangalore and Hyderabad for induction in terror. But the state government claimed that the figures were exaggerated.
& some Folks Think Evil Iran can be India's AllyKhamenei Urges Muslims to 'Help' Kashmir
ANI, Nov 16, 2010, 03.19pm IST
TEHRAN: The Supreme leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has urged the Islamic Ummah to sympathise and provide assistance to Kashmir, and called the United States an arrogant, "self-styled commandant of the Islamic region and the real sponsor of the Zionist regime". (Read: UN removes J&K from disputed list, Pak objects)
"Today the major duties of the elite of the Islamic Ummah is to provide help to the Palestinian nation and the besieged people of Gaza, to sympathise and provide assistance to the nations of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and Kashmir, to engage in struggle and resistance against the aggressions of the United States and the Zionist regime, to safeguard the solidarity of Muslims and stop tainted hands and mercenary voices that try to damage this unity, to spread awakening and the sense of responsibility and commitment among Muslim youth throughout Islamic communities," Khamenei's office quoted him, as saying, in his message to the Hajj pilgrims.
"The extensive propaganda of the enemy to spread Islamophobia, its offhand efforts to create discord among Muslim sects, to incite sectarian prejudices, to bring about pseudo-confrontations between the Sunnis and the Shi'ah, to create disunity between Islamic states and to aggravate their differences, to change them into hostility and unsolvable conflicts, its employment of intelligence and espionage outfits to propagate corruption and immorality amongst the youth--all these are nervous and bewildered responses to the steady and firm advances of the Islamic Ummah towards awakening, honour and freedom," he added.
Khamenei noted that in today's world, the "Zionist regime is no more the undefeatable monster of 30 years ago. The United States and the West are also no more the unquestionable decision-makers of the Middle East that they were two decades ago."
"Contrary to the situation that existed ten years ago, the nuclear know-how and other complex technologies are no longer considered inaccessible daydreams for Muslim nations of the region," he added.
In his message, Khamenei went on to say, "Today the arrogant United States, the self-styled commandant of the Islamic region and the real sponsor of the Zionist regime, is bogged down in the quagmire of its own making in Afghanistan. As a result of all its crimes against the people of Iraq, it is in the course of becoming isolated in that country. It is hated more than ever before in disaster-stricken Pakistan."
He said that the influence of the anti-Islamic front was receding while the wave of Islamic awakening was "steadily advancing and growing in depth day by day."
"On the one hand, this hopeful and promising situation should inspire us, the Muslim nations, to keep marching ahead towards the desirable future with ever greater confidence. On the other hand, the past lessons and experience should make us more vigilant than ever before," said the spiritual leader, adding, "This general imperative undoubtedly calls for greater commitment from religious scholars, political leaders, intellectuals and youth than the others and requires them to be at the vanguard of the struggle."
This speech is mostly targeted at helping the Shia population wherever its in minority. Khamenei lumps kashmir with Iraq and pakhanistan. The diatribe against the US and Israel is mandatory.Juggi G wrote:Khamenei Urges Muslims to 'Help' Kashmir
