'Jammu's people are working on communal lines'

August 25, 2008
Are you talking about Kashmir alone or the entire state, which includes Hindus and Buddhists, both of whom would not like to live in an Islamic dispensation of your dreams?

I want the right to self-determination for the entire territory of Jammu & Kashmir, including the areas under Pakistan. Let people decide once and for all which country they want to be with.

The question of imposing an Islamic rule is different. Why do people object to it? If America and India can have democratic rule, others can have Communism, why object to Islamic rule?

How bothered are you about the agitation in Jammu, where leaders are angry precisely about this point: Kashmiri leaders' hidden agenda behind the Amarnath land controversy?

Jammu's people are working on communal lines. But it is a fact that the transfer of land is not the core issue for us.
