Hurriyat sets preconditions for talks

Srinagar, May 21 (KMW): Asserting that there was no 'open' or 'quiet' dialogue going on between separatists and the Union government, moderate Hurriyat leader Mirwaiz Umer Farooq today set preconditions for initiating talks with the Centre to resolve the Kashmir issue. “If government of India is serious about holding talks for resolution of Kashmir issue, it should release all political prisoners unconditionally, revoke all black laws like Armed Forces Special Powers Act, withdraw troops and announce a comprehensive political package", Mirwaiz told a gathering at Eidgah martyrs graveyard here this evening. "If these measures are initiated and India shows seriousness to carry forward the dialogue for resolution of Kashmir issue with pro-freedom leadership, we as well as the people of the state are ready for talks," the moderate Hurriyat Conference Chairman said.
