KASHMIR-LD CCS 2LST

Expressing the readiness to hold talks with all sections,
the CCS said "the dialogue can address issues such as the
trust deficit and the governance deficit".
It recalled that the United Progressive Alliance (UPA)
government had, in the past too, taken several initiatives to
hold a dialogue with different political parties and political
groups, including the Hurriyat.
"Those efforts did yield some results. It was -- and it
remains -- the intention of the UPA government to restart the
process of dialogue. The dialogue can embrace all the issues
that agitate the minds of the people of Jammu and Kashmir,
especially the youth," the statement said.
"The CCS reiterates government's intention to restart to
process of dialogue with different sections of the people of
Jammu and Kashmir," it said.
While deciding to convene all-party meeting on Wednesday,
the government hoped that following that interaction, it would
be able to engage the people of Jammu and Kashmir, the
northernmost Indian state, and also take certain initiatives
and measures that will build confidence among its people.
At the same time, the CCS said it was "deeply distressed
by the turn of events since Eid and especially the events that
took place today following certain rumours."
The CCS expressed its profound grief at the loss of lives
and offers its sincere condolences to the bereaved families.
"Every life that is lost and every person who is injured,
besides causing immense grief, add to the complexity of the
situation. The government sincerely hopes that the people of
Jammu and Kashmir will heed this appeal and cooperate with the
government in its efforts to ensure justice, dignity, honour
and peace in Jammu and Kashmir," it said. PTI ACB
