Lifting of AFSPA will be a blunder: Panun
Jammu, March 14, 2013
Panun Kashmir-an
amalgam of Kashmiri Pandit organisations on Thursday said revocation of Armed
Force Special Powers Act (AFSPA) will be a blunder. "It has been
established by incidents like fidayeen attacks that unless the government
evolves plans to stop the state of Pakistan
from producing terrorists and stops them to cross over to India and in such a case, lifting
of AFSPA will be a blunder," Ashwani Chrungoo-president Panun Kashmir in a
statement issued here said. Panun's
statement came in the backdrop of yesterday's militant attack in Bemina in Srinagar in which five
CRPF personnel were killed and two militants were neutralised.
Addressing
a youth workshop here this afternoon Chrungoo said, "The situation
emerging in consequence of the recent terror attacks in Kashmir
has assumed alarming proportions." He
said terror attacks on the CRPF camp in the Valley is not only a serious
security failure but is also a serious policy failure adding, "the recent
spate of statements by the Kashmir centric parties and the ruckus created in
the Assembly in the context of Guru execution and burial have further ignited
the scenario." The Panun leader alleged that the Kashmir
centric parties are competing with each other in order to play to the
secessionist galleries and satiate the anti-India sentiment.
Panun Kashmir
spokesperson Virender Raina said, "The terror attacks and the connected
law and order situation have endangered the security and safety of the
nationalist population including the Kashmiri Pandits in Kashmir."
"The government needs to ensure that all those who have been appointed
under the PMs employment package are not put to any risk of life or liberty and also explore the
possibility of shifting them to safer locations outside the valley," he
added
