Joint Moves On Kashmir A Must: Tarigami

AFTER having held its meeting for two days, the Jammu & Kashmir state  committee of the CPI(M) issued on June 28 an appeal to the governments of India and Pakistan to initiate earnest and coordinated measures for bringing down the level of suffering in the state. This was stated by the CPI(M) state secretary Mohd Yousuf Tarigami.

Hailing the then ongoing foreign secretary level talks in New Delhi, the CPI(M) state committee asked the two governments to direct their joint efforts for sincerely effecting an internal cease-fire to compliment an already prevailing one on LoC and international border. The committee felt that this could lead to a substantial reduction in the level of forcesneeded for internal security and pave the way for substantive talks, with the prospect for concrete results emerging from the ongoing peace process.
