Jammu:
Opposition parties Thursday held noisy protests in the legislative
assembly against the sixth report of interlocutors on Jammu and
Kashmir that has recommended restoration of autonomy to the state.
The Bharatiya Janata Party, Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers
Party and Jammu State Morcha members started the protest soon
after question hour ended, saying that the interlocutors had
violated terms of their reference.
The three interlocutors, Dileep Padgaonkar, Radha Kumar and M.M.
Ansari, in their report to union Home Minister P. Chidamabaram
Wednesday, reportedly recommended restoration of autonomy to Jammu
and Kashmir, the status it enjoyed pre-1953 when it had control
over all affairs barring defence, communications and external
affairs.
Jammu Kashmir National Panthers Party leader Harshdev Singh
alleged that the "interlocutors have made recommendations which
are not acceptable to most of the people", and said that the
"centre should reject the report".
Greater autonomy, the plank of the ruling National Conference, is
opposed by the people in Jammu and Ladakh regions of Jammu and
Kashmir.
National Conference members termed the report as a "reflection of
sentiments of the people".
