Srinagar, Jan 5: The chairman Hurriyat Conference (M), Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, and JKLF Chairman, Muhammad Yasin Malik, left for Delhi Tuesday to meet top Pakistani leaders in New Delhi tomorrow.
The chairman Hurriyat (G) Syed Ali Shah Geelani, who is already in New Delhi for treatment, is also scheduled to meet the Chairman of the Pakistan Senate, Farooq Ahmad Nayak, and the Speaker of the National Assembly, Fahmida Mirza. The three leaders have been invited by the Pakistan High Commission.
Mirwaiz was accompanied by Prof. Abdul Gani Bhat, Bilal Gani Lone and Agha Budgami. Shabir Ahmad Shah couldn’t be part of the team due to health reasons.
Mirwaiz told Greater Kashmir that they would be meeting Pak leaders on Wednesday at 5 pm. “We are also scheduled to meet diplomats of various countries in New Delhi to apprise them about the latest situation in Kashmir,” he said.
The Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi had recently issued an invitation to the separatist leaders for a meeting with the visiting leaders, setting off hectic preparations in the separatist camp here for the visit.
