LAHORE, Sept 27: AJK Prime Minister Sirdar Sikandar Hayat has said though Kashmiris want peaceful relations between India and Pakistan, pinning high hopes on the ongoing peace talks between the two countries will be usless.

“New Delhi has never been serious in talks in the past and has always been gaining time under this pretext,” Hayat told under-training officers at Nipa here on Tuesday.

Indian leaders never kept their words they had given in the UN and during various rounds of talks with occupied Kashmir leaders, he said and added therefore, the expectation that they would allow Kashmiris their right to franchise was nothing but a farce.

The AJK premier opposed any flexibility on the Kashmir issue, saying deviation from UN resolutions was neither good for Islamabad nor for Kashmiris.

Answering a question, he said the 1949 ceasefire decision had been taken without consulting Kashmiris.
