The opportunity in Kashmir:  Hurriyat leaders condemns the Amarnath attack

Context

  • The new development post the Amarnath attack has been that the separatists of the Hurriyat came out to condemn the killings.
  • The Hurriyat leaders have put their names out publicly for their opposition to the attack on the pilgrims to Amarnath to be known.

Difference between the Hurriyat and the Jihadists

  • Hurriyat are Indian people; the jihadists are not.
  • The Jihadists are outsiders, if not from across the borders. Jihadists pledge no loyalty to Kashmir or India.
  • The Hurriyat on the other hand care for Kashmir. They do not want to break up from India.
  • The rupture between the jihadists and the Hurriyat needs to be seized upon by the government.
