Tribune News Service

New Delhi, October 6
Following attack on Jammu and Kashmir Assembly in which over 40 persons were killed, some Kashmir-based political parties have stressed the need of abjuring violence and finding a solution to the vexed Kashmir issue through talks.

Expressing concern over the attack on the state Legislative Assembly, the Jammu and Kashmir Mutahida Mahaz (JKMM) has also said violence will not result in solution to the Kashmir problem.

JKMM chief Mir Khursheed said the people of state wanted peace to return for which an appropriate environment had to be created.

Claiming that the Farooq Abdullah government had failed to solve the problems of masses, Mr Khursheed said “disenchantment” among people was making it difficult to pursue peace moves.

The JKMM leader said response given by the people to the strike call by his organisation on September 20 was “encouraging.”
