Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) Chairman Yasin Malik on Sunday said he saw Jammu and Kashmir as an independent and secular state in the future, a private TV channel reported. "I am not talking about Western secularism but pointing towards the secularism which is based on religious mysticism," he explained.
| Clearly I'm not mystical enough. That made absolutely no sense to me. |
Malik asked India and Pakistan to resume peace talks and include the Kashmiri leadership in the process as well. He said all stakeholders, including mujahideen, should be included in the peace process. "We don't want to listen to decisions about Jammu and Kashmir on television or radios," he said, adding Pakistan and India were just "informing" Kashmiris about their decisions. |
