| Army Chief’s remarks unwarranted: Tarigami | |
Srinagar, February 17, (Scoop News)- Expressing disappointment over the remarks of the Army Chief General Bipin Rawat, CPI (M) leader and MLA Kulgam Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami today said that at a time when efforts are needed for reaching out to people, such statements are bound to widen the gulf between people of valley and the rest of the country.
In statement to press he said, "such harsh statements could compound the already hostile situation in Kashmir and prove counterproductive. This was the time for taking confidence building measures (CBMs) as there is huge trust deficit. The present situation is outcome of trust deficit and reflection of accumulated anger over the decades. Situation won't improve unless the governments both at the Centre and in the State respond to disillusionment and hopelessness in Kashmir."
Terming the pelting of stones as an expression of disillusionment, he said, "They (stone pelters) want to be heard but nobody is listening. The response to stones with guns is highly unfortunate and unacceptable."
