SRINAGAR, Nov 24: Pakistan and India should resolve the Kashmir dispute with talks similar to the forthcoming conference on Afghanistan, a senior Kashmiri leader said on Saturday.

“When warring Afghan factions can meet in Bonn, why can’t a similar conference to find a solution to Kashmir be held in Delhi, Islamabad or any neutral venue,” said Javed Mir, vice president of the Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF).

“India and Pakistan should see reason and concentrate on resolving the perplexed issue (of Kashmir) after peace is restored in Afghanistan,” Mir said.

“It is the best time for both the countries to end hostilities and start a meaningful dialogue,” he added.—AFP
