Srinagar,January 29 (Scoop News) – Asking the National Conference and PDP to bring in a joint resolution in the forthcoming session of Legislative Assembly seeking amnesty for Afzal Guru, MLA Langate Engineer Rasheed said the two parties are expected to represent the general public aspirations regarding the Guru issue.
Addressing a public gathering in Panditpora Langate , MLA Langate said his resolution seeking amnesty for Afzal Guru was sabotaged in the previous session of the Assembly, which saddened the people who expected their representatives to raise the issue of their compatriot. “I have been saying that Guru issue should be seen throw the prism of humanity and not politics, and I expect all lovers of humanity to support amnesty for him,” he asserted. Rasheed said since Kashmir’s two main regional parties NC and PDP say that in principle they support amnesty to Guru, so let them bring in a joint resolution in the forthcoming session of Legislative Assembly. “This is the time that both regional parties, which claim to represent Kashmiri sentiment, prove their sincerity and seriousness,” he said.
MLA Langate said that he is in contact with several leaders of both the parties, and hoped both NC and PDP will not let their narrow political differences prevail over the larger interests of people.
