All-party delegations have lost credibility: Omar Abdullah

September 04, 2016 16:23

Former Jammu and Kashmir ChiefMinister Omar Abdullah today met the all-party delegation led by Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh here and said such efforts have lost credibility as there has hardly been anyfollow-up after similar visits in the past.

During his hour-long interaction with the delegation,Omar recalled the previous all-party delegation visits since 1990 to Kashmir and said that "unfortunately when things cool down, there is no progress on the issue". He said the MPs who have come here this time face a mammoth task in their hands to revive faith in this process.

Omar also spoke of "continuous failure of the state government and its dilly dallying tactics".

"Mehbooba Mufti should decide whether she wants to be the chief minister or Leader of Opposition. In the morning she says one thing and does a complete about turn by evening. She wants that Hurriyat should be talked to but in the evening she puts them under arrest," he said.

Omar said such all-party delegations have lost credibility because there was no follow up after their visits in the past.
