‘Heart to Heart’ Talks in March between leadership & civil society of POK & J&K

New Delhi. Addressing a large gathering of advocates, trade unionists, workers and political activists at Jantar Mantar this morning, Prof. Bhim Singh, Chief Patron of National Panthers Party and the initiator for the movement for the reorganization of J&K state so that a confederation of J&K is evolved by establishing, ‘Jammu State, Kashmir Valley State & Ladakh-Gilgit’ to end half a century of discrimination, chaos, disorder and political discrimination with the citizens of India living in different regions of J&K since 1947.

Prof. Bhim Singh declared that the third convocation, ‘Heart to Heart’ Talks shall be organized either in POK or in Jammu this year in the 1st week of March to evolve a new, scientific, secular and peaceful resolution for the reorganization of J&K on the basis of cultural, linguistic and geographical makeup of the state. Prof. Bhim Singh said that there is a tremendous response to discuss this situation. Two ‘Heart to Heart’ Talks were held in 2005 and again in 2007 in Delhi and Jammu which were organized by Prof. Bhim Singh under the chairmanship of Late Sardar Abdul Qayyum Khan, former President & Prime Minister of POK. He said that the political climate in the Indo-Pak region did not help us to go for the third get-together. He said that there is general goodwill on both sides of J&K to hold such a rally in Pakistan or in India in 2016.

Prof. Bhim Singh has been in touch with the senior leaders in both sides of J&K and there is a tremendous response from the leadership of Jammu Pradesh, Kashmir Valley and Ladakh-Gilgit regions. He said that the third ‘Heart to Heart’ Talks has to be proposed to be held in the 1st week of March 2016 either in POK or in J&K.

Prof. Bhim Singh said the reorganization of J&K shall be discussed thread-ware to float a confederation of Jammu State, Kashmir Vally state and Ladakh-Gilgit state which shall be organized as a confederation.

He said that he is hoping for a positive response from POK and Gilgit in this regard.

Prof. Bhim Singh shall be writing to the leadership of India and Pakistan in this regard next week with an appeal that guns or violence is no solution for the resolution of any problem or conflict. He expected a positive response from both the governments, India and Pakistan.
