SRINAGAR, May 14: Apni Party president Altaf Bukhari on Thursday said while New Delhi can decide on whether to hold talks with Pakistan, the Centre should start a dialogue with people of Jammu and Kashmir urgently.
\n\u201cRSS General Secretary Dattatreya Hosabale\u2019s statement on dialogue with Pakistan and former Army chief Manoj Naravane\u2019s similar views are matters that the central government has to decide based on the prevailing domestic and external scenario,\u201d Bukhari said in a statement here.
\nThe former minister said, however, that there should not be an iota of doubt that the Centre urgently needs to talk to the people of Jammu and Kashmir in order to address their genuine concerns and long-pending grievances.
\n\u201cI am saying this again and again because I clearly see growing restlessness among the people, especially our youth. People here are grappling with a range of issues that need to be addressed as soon as possible,\u201d he added.
\nBukhari said some of the immediate and pressing problems include growing unemployment and, at the same time, the absence of adequate measures for job creation.
\n\u201cA large number of young people are unable to obtain passports, preventing them from seeking better livelihood opportunities abroad. At the same time, soaring inflation has placed immense pressure on ordinary families,\u201d he said.
\nAgriculture, horticulture, tourism and industrial sectors, constituting the backbone of Jammu and Kashmir economy, are facing grave challenges that must be addressed urgently, he said.
\n\u201cNot only large industries but also the MSMEs and small scale industries (SSIs), which sustain thousands of families, are grappling with severe difficulties, and many are either nearly defunct or on the brink of collapse,\u201d he added.
\nBukhari said there are a range of other issues that deserve the Centre\u2019s immediate attention.
\n\u201cThese problems are directly affecting the daily lives of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, thereby creating a feeling that everything is not going well here and that the situation cannot be declared normal,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
